1. ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES: The Parties agree that they may enter into this Lease by electronic means,
although traditional hard copies with ink signatures may be used instead at the option of the Landlord.
2. LEASED PREMISES: Landlord rents to Resident the Premises identified in FLP Paragraph D located within
the Community identified above in FLP Paragraph A for use as a residence and for no other purpose.
3. TERM & DELAY IN POSSESSION:
(a) The term of this Lease shall be for the number of months set forth in FLP Paragraph E, commencing on the
Commencement Date set forth in FLP Paragraph E and ending on the Initial Lease Termination Date set
forth in FLP Paragraph E subject to earlier cancellation or termination as provided in this Lease or
applicable law and subject to the renewal provisions of the "HOLDING OVER" paragraph below.
(b) Resident understands that, for reasons beyond the control of the Landlord, Landlord may not be able to
provide occupancy to Resident on said Commencement Date (if, for example, a former tenant of the
Premises who has given notice to leave cancels the notice or fails to leave by the scheduled date). If, for
any reason, Landlord is unable to provide occupancy to Resident by the scheduled Commencement Date,
Resident's remedy in this event shall be limited to termination of this agreement, and Resident shall in this
event be entitled to a prompt refund of any moneys paid. Landlord shall have no liability to Resident in this
event other than the responsibility to promptly refund any moneys paid.
4. HOLDING OVER: Unless another Lease is signed by the Parties hereto or unless written notice of
election not to renew is given by either party thirty (30) days before the expiration of this Lease, this
Lease shall be automatically renewed on a month-to-month basis, subject to amendment by Landlord
as set forth in California Civil Code Section 827 and terminable by either party on thirty (30) days
written notice in accordance with the provision of California Civil Code Section 1946.
5. RENT:
(a) Resident shall pay to Landlord, as rent for the Premises, the Monthly Base Rent set forth in FLP Paragraph
F. Rent shall be paid in full, in advance, on or before the first (1st) day of each month using a method
identified in this Lease. Rent and all other charges due Landlord hereunder shall be payable to the entity
indicated in FLP Paragraph F. Landlord reserves the right to pass tax increases on to Resident with proper
notice as required by law.
For the convenience of the Resident, Landlord allows rent to be paid on-line through a variety of methods,
including its Resident Portal. Resident should contact Landlord for assistance in establishing an online
account should resident wish to utilize the convenience of this option. Payment by cash, cashier's check,
money order, or certified check must be made at a WIPS location. To utilize WIPS, contact the
Management Office to enroll and receive a WIPS registration number. Resident can find the WIPS location
nearest Resident by visiting checkfreepay.com/agentlocator, selecting "WIPS Rent Payments" as the biller,
and entering Resident's Zip Code. Please plan on at least three (3) business days between the date
Resident makes a payment at a WIPS location and the date it is received by Landlord. Payment may also
be made by personal check mailed to PO Box 82836 Goleta, CA 93118-2685. Payment of rent and any
other charges due to Landlord is not accepted in person on site unless Landlord directs Resident to do so
in writing (for example, in a notice to pay rent or surrender possession). Landlord may also accept money
transfers from designated third-party financial services companies. Resident should contact Landlord to
determine if Landlord will accept this method of payment and for required information should Resident wish
to utilize this option. It is Resident's responsibility to be certain that each payment is made on or before its
due date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Landlord reserves the right to make changes at any time, and
from time to time, to the acceptable methods for payment of rent (including ceasing its acceptance of
money orders or removal of one or more of the other acceptable methods of payment) upon no less than
sixty (60) days' written notice to Resident.
(b) If Landlord serves Resident with a three (3) day notice to pay rent or surrender possession, which Landlord
may do on any date after the first (1st) day of the month, any payment tendered following service of said
notice must be made in the form of a cashier's check or certified check. If any check given by Resident is
returned unpaid by the bank upon which it is drawn, Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, may
require that all subsequent payments for the balance of Resident's occupancy of the Premises (including
the payment necessary to replace the dishonored check) be in the form of cashier's check or certified
check.
(c) Landlord shall apply any payment made by Resident to any obligation of Resident to Landlord in Landlord's

3
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

sole discretion. Landlord shall have this right notwithstanding any allocation or direction by Resident to
Landlord, which allocation shall be voidable at Landlord's sole election, regardless of whether such
direction or allocation appears on the face of the form of payment or in a separate writing. Generally,
Landlord will apply rent received first to any past delinquent rent or utility balance owed by Resident before
applying said payment to current rent due.
(d) The failure to pay any amount as outlined in this Lease Agreement including, but not limited to the payment
of rent, late fees, utilities, storage, parking, pet rent, and all other amounts shall be considered a material
breach of the Lease.
6. LATE CHARGE AND NSF CHARGE: Landlord and Resident agree that the actual cost to Landlord when
Resident fails to pay rent on time, or when Resident pays rent by a check which is subsequently dishonored
by the bank, is difficult or impossible to ascertain, but the parties agree that Landlord does, in the event of late
payment or in the event of a dishonored check, incur costs, such as additional bookkeeping and administrative
expense, bank charges, lost opportunity, cost of the late payment, etc. The parties accordingly agree that, any
time the rent for any given month is paid after the fifth (5th) day of such month, Resident will in that month as
a fair estimate of Landlord's costs and not a penalty, pay to Landlord a late charge in the sum indicated in FLP
Paragraph K above. Resident acknowledges and agrees that where Landlord does not receive payment of
rent by the fifth (5th) day of any month due to Resident's check being dishonored, or returned for
Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF), Resident agrees to pay Landlord, as a fair estimate of Landlord's costs and not
as a penalty a charge of $25.00 for the first dishonored check and $35.00 for any subsequent dishonored
check. Both parties agree that the payment of these sums does not constitute an agreement Resident may
pay rent late or by dishonored check. Rent remains due on the first (1st) day of the month and there is no
grace period for the payment of rent. A three (3) day notice to pay rent or quit may be served at any time after
the first (1st) business day of the month irrespective of the existence of the late or NSF charges as set forth
herein.
7. CHECK CONVERSION: If Resident makes any payment by check, it may be converted into an electronic
funds transfer (EFT). This means the check will be copied and the account information on it used to
electronically debit Resident's account for the amount of the check. The debit from Resident's account will
usually occur within twenty-four (24) hours, and may occur as early as the same day as the check is received.
The debit will be shown on Resident's regular account statement. Resident will not receive the original check
back. The original check will be destroyed, but a copy of it will be kept to the extent required by applicable
laws. If the EFT cannot be processed for technical reasons, Resident authorizes processing the copy in place
of the original check. If the EFT cannot be completed because of insufficient funds, Landlord may require
payment in certified funds as required by the Rent provision above.
8. SECURITY DEPOSIT: Resident shall pay to Landlord, as security, the sum of the amounts indicated in FLP
Paragraphs I and J ("Security Deposit"). Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, apply all or part of any
Security Deposit to any of Resident's obligations hereunder. Application of the Security Deposit to any
obligation is in addition to any other remedies available to Landlord as a result of Resident's breach of this
Lease and doing so will not deprive Landlord from the right to terminate the tenancy for such breach. Resident
agrees to restore the Security Deposit to its full amount within ten (10) days of written demand by Landlord.
Failure to do so is a material breach of this Lease.
At the termination of Resident's tenancy, the Security Deposit shall be applied and accounted for in
accordance with the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1950.5 and any other applicable statutes.
Resident acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) After Resident has moved from and cleaned the Premises to the same level of cleanliness that existed at
the time of Resident's initial occupancy, as disclosed by the Move-In Inspection Report attached to this
Lease, Landlord will determine whether Resident is eligible for a refund of any or all of the Security
Deposit;
(b) The amount of the refund will be determined in accordance with the following conditions and procedures:
(i) After the Resident has moved from the Premises, Landlord will inspect the Premises;
(ii) Landlord will refund to Resident the amount of the Security Deposit less any amount needed to pay
the cost of the following:
a. Damages that are not due to ordinary wear and tear and are not listed on the Move-In Inspection

Report (see Cleaning Guidelines in Community Handbook);


b. Charges for late payment of rent and returned checks; and
c. Unpaid amounts owing to Landlord, including, but not limited to, monthly base rent, unpaid utility
bills and any related administrative costs, charges for unreturned keys and access devices,
amounts outstanding under any other agreements between Landlord and Resident which
contemplate use of the security deposit in the event of a default.
(c) Resident may not use any portion of the Security Deposit toward the last month's rent.
(d) Landlord's right to possession of the Premises for Resident's default shall not be in any manner limited
because Landlord holds or applies the Security Deposit, or any portion thereof;
(e) Subject to applicable law, Landlord shall not be obligated to pay Resident interest in connection with the
Security Deposit.
(f) The Security Deposit is applicable to all Residents jointly, and need not be accounted for until the
permissible statutory period after such time as all Residents have vacated the Premises, which requires
the return of possession of the Premises to Landlord, return of the keys and provision of Resident's new
address to the Landlord. If Landlord does not have the Resident's forwarding address, the Security Deposit
will be sent to the Resident's last known address.
(g) Any refund due will be made payable jointly to all Residents and it shall be the responsibility of all
Residents to work out between themselves the manner of dividing the Security Deposit.
(h) If the Security Deposit is later increased by agreement of the Parties for any reason (such as the
installation of a satellite dish, a waterbed or relating to a pet), the additional Security Deposit will be
disbursed by Landlord in accordance with this paragraph at the end of the statutory period following the
end of the Resident's tenancy. Removal of the pet, satellite dish or waterbed, or whatever caused the
increase in the deposit, will not be grounds for early disbursement of the Security Deposit.
9. PERMITTED OCCUPANTS:
(a) The Premises shall be occupied only by the Resident(s) identified in FLP Paragraph B and the Authorized
Occupants set forth in FLP Paragraph C. Any person who is not listed in FLP Paragraphs B or C is a
"Guest." A Guest may not stay at the Premises for more than seven (7) consecutive days, or a total of
fourteen (14) days in a 12 month period, without written permission from Landlord. Guests who stay longer
than these limits are considered unauthorized occupants, and is a material violation of the lease. Resident
is responsible for ensuring that any person who becomes an adult occupant of the Premises (after the
commencement of the Lease term) reviews the terms and conditions of the Lease, including the
Proposition 65 Warning in Section 22, and works with Landlord to be added to FLP Paragraph B or C.
Resident is responsible for any violation of this Lease by Resident's Guest(s). No other persons have
permission to occupy the Premises unless such permission is in writing and signed by Landlord or its
authorized agent.
(b) The acceptance of rent from any other individual shall be deemed to be the payment of rent on behalf of
the Resident named in FLP Paragraph B, and shall not constitute permission for the person making the
payment to occupy the Premises.
(c) Should any person not named above in this FLP Paragraphs B or C make any claim to right of possession
of the Premises, such person shall be deemed the guest or invitee of the named Resident and, at
Landlord's sole option, their claim to right of possession may be denied.
(d) The persons identified in FLP Paragraph C shall be deemed to occupy the Premises under the named
Resident who are signatory to this Lease and shall thus be deemed the invitee of said named Resident.
Accordingly, should any such individual not be named in any unlawful detainer action to regain possession
of the Premises, and should any such individual thereafter make a claim to right of possession of the
Premises, that claim shall be denied on the basis that said individual is the invitee of the named Resident
and does not have an independent claim to right of possession of the Premises.
(e) Resident understands that the number of occupants cannot exceed Landlord's occupancy standards for
the floorplan of the Premises, which generally is no more than two persons per bedroom plus one

5
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM

additional person. If the household composition changes such that the number of occupants exceeds this
occupancy standard, Resident agrees that such over-utilization shall be grounds for Landlord to terminate
this Agreement, solely at Landlord's option.
10. UTILITIES: Resident is responsible for utilities as set forth in the Utilities Addendum attached to this Lease.
11. PHONE WIRING MAINTENANCE: Landlord shall provide Resident with at least one operational telephone
jack and shall maintain and repair internal telephone wiring. Resident should initiate landline phone service in
Resident's name so that phone service is available during emergencies. Landlord shall not be responsible for
any consequences resulting from Resident's failure to do so. Resident acknowledges and is aware that cell
service may not be available during emergencies and that Landlord makes no representation or guarantees as
to cell phone coverage. Resident shall not install or cause to be installed any additional telephone jacks or in
any manner alter, modify, or repair the internal telephone wiring without written consent of Landlord. Resident
shall be liable to Landlord for any and all charges, damages or costs incurred by the Landlord as a result of
the Resident's violation of this provision. Landlord makes no representations or warranties as to the location of
any internal telephone jacks, that jacks may be moved or that any additional jacks may be installed.
12. JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY AND AUTHORITY: All persons signing this Lease as Resident shall be
jointly and severally liable for all obligations under this Lease, whether or not they remain in actual possession
of the Premises. The giving by any individual Resident of a notice of termination of tenancy shall not terminate
the Lease as to that Resident unless all Residents vacate the Premises by the agreed date. Landlord may,
however, treat any such notice as a notice binding against all Residents of the Premises, and may institute
unlawful detainer proceedings against all Residents in the event that they do not restore possession of the
Premises to Landlord on or before the end of the notice period. Conversely, Landlord may, at its sole option, in
the event that one or more Resident gives notice but all Residents do not return possession of the Premises to
Landlord within the notice period, continue the tenancy in effect and, if Landlord does so, all Residents,
including the Resident giving notice, shall remain fully liable for all obligations arising under this Lease whether
or not they remain in occupancy of the Premises.
13. NOTICES AND AUTHORIZED MANAGER:
(a) Any notice which Landlord gives to Resident shall be deemed properly served (whether or not actually
received by Resident) if served in the manner prescribed in Code of Civil Procedure Section 1162. If
Landlord fails to serve the notice in accordance with the provisions of Code of Civil Procedure Section
1162, but Resident actually receives the notice, the actual receipt shall be deemed to cure any defects in
the manner of service and the notice shall be deemed properly and personally served. Service upon any
Resident of the Premises shall be deemed valid service upon all Residents. It is not necessary to
individually serve each Resident.
(b) Resident is hereby notified that Essex Management Corporation is authorized to manage the property on
the Owner's behalf and to accept service of process, notices or demands on behalf of the Landlord.
Service may be effected on this entity at 1100 Park Place, Suite 200, San Mateo, CA 94403 Attention:

14. PEST CONTROL:


(a) The Premises and/or the Property is covered by a contract for regular pest control service. Pursuant to
applicable law, concurrently with signing this Lease, you are being provided with a copy of the legally
required notice provided by the registered pest control company entitled Pesticide Notice/Disclosure.
(b) Resident and Landlord both have inspected the Premises prior to leasing and acknowledge there is no
visible evidence of the presence or infestation of insects or vermin, including bedbugs, in the Premises.
Resident agrees to inspect all personal belongings for signs of bedbugs and other insects or vermin prior to
bringing personal belongings into the unit and further agree not to bring into the Premises any belongings
which Resident suspects may be infested with bedbugs, insects or other vermin.
(c) Resident agrees to maintain the cleanliness of the Premises in a sanitary condition and keep it free and
clear of all rubbish, undisposed food items (including pet food) and overcrowding of furniture, possessions
and other items in such a manner that prevents the occurrence of an infestation of insects, bedbugs and
vermin. Resident will also comply with Rules and other policies relating to the prevention of infestations.
Resident further agrees to report any signs of bedbugs, ants, fleas, roaches, or other insects or vermin
immediately to Landlord.
(d) If the premises is not maintained by the Resident in a sanitary condition as described in subparagraph(c)
above or Resident allows individuals or items carrying bedbugs, fleas, roaches or other insects or vermin
into the Premises, or has an infestation that cannot be traced to another source, the resulting infestation
will be deemed damage to the Premises and Resident will be responsible for all costs of treatment to the
Premises, their personal belongings and surrounding units as necessary to eradicate the infestation (costs
including but not limited to lost rents, pest control services, and tenant relocation). The choice of treatment
shall be at the discretion of Landlord in consultation with Landlord's pest control vendor.
(e) Resident acknowledges that pest or insect infestations may occur from time-to-time through no fault of the
Landlord and Landlord does not guarantee a pest or insect free environment. Landlord shall not be liable
for naturally occurring conditions which might attract pests or insects, and Resident releases and waives
any right to sue Landlord for claims resulting in any physical injury, illness or economic loss which Resident
may suffer as a result of or incidental to pests or insects at or near the Property. Resident agrees to timely
cooperate with all pest control efforts at and within the Premises and the Property. Resident shall follow all
instructions from Landlord and/or Landlord's pest control company with respect to treatment and
eradication whether infestation is in Resident's unit, another unit or elsewhere on the Property at
Resident's sole expense. Resident shall make arrangements to dispose of any furniture or other items
infested with pests. Such items may not be disposed of at the Property. If the Resident fails to cooperate in
a timely manner, Resident may bear additional responsibility for the cost associated with treating
neighboring residents or other vermin.
15. REPORTING INFESTATIONS: Resident is required to report, in writing, any suspected infestations to
Landlord immediately after discovery. Resident shall immediately report any signs of any infestations,
including, but not limited to any household member experiencing any bites, seeing any insects or other vermin
within the Premises or seeing any feces or other detritus relating to insects.
16. INFORMATION ABOUT BED BUGS: Landlord hereby provides the following general information about bed
bug identification, behavior, biology, the importance of cooperation for prevention and treatment, and the
importance of and for prompt written reporting of suspected infestations to Landlord:
(a) 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.
(b) 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.
(c) Survival: Bed bugs can survive for months without feeding.
(d) 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.

7
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

(e) Common Signs and Symptoms of a Possible Bed Bug Infestation:


(i) Small red to reddish brown fecal spots on mattresses, box springs, bed frames, mattresses, linens,
upholstery, or walls.
(ii) Molted bed bug skins, white, sticky eggs, or empty eggshells.
(iii) Very heavily infested areas may have a characteristically sweet odor.
(iv) 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.
(f) More Information: For more information, see the Internet Web sites of the United States Environmental
Protection Agency and the National Pest Management Association.
(g) This Agreement requires Resident to cooperate fully with Landlord in the prevention and treatment of any
infestation, including the duty to report any signs of infestations. Prompt treatment and Resident
cooperation is important when battling bed bugs. Early reporting allows the pests to be identified and
treated before the infestation spreads. As a tenant, Resident is the first line of defense against bed bug
infestations and should create living environments that deter bed bugs. Resident cooperation is shown to
expedite the control of bed bugs and to prevent spreading of infestation. This includes reducing
unreasonable amounts of clutter that creates hiding places for bed bugs, and regular checking of beds and
laundering of linens.
17. ACCESS TO PREMISES:
(a) The parties agree that the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1954 (and any other applicable
statute or amendments which might be enacted subsequent to the execution of this Lease) govern the
rights and duties relating to Landlord's access to the Premises. The parties further agree that Landlord or
Landlord's agents may enter the Premises for any reasonable business purpose at reasonable times,
including without limitation to perform repairs, renovations or make improvements. Landlord and Resident
agree to permitting Landlord access to the Premises in accordance with this provision.
(b) Resident agrees that, should Resident deny Landlord access to the Premises when Landlord is in
compliance with statutory requirements and entitled to access, any such denial of access shall be deemed
a material breach of this Lease and shall entitle Landlord to serve Resident with a three-day notice to quit.
(c) The law requires Resident to allow entry of Landlord and its contractors and invitees in case of emergency,
to make necessary improvements or repairs, decorations, or alterations, supply necessary or agreed
services, to test smoke detectors, or exhibit the dwelling unit to prospective or actual purchasers,
mortgages, tenants, workmen or contractors or to make an inspection pursuant to subdivision (f) of Section
1950.5, when the Resident has abandoned or surrendered the premises and pursuant to court order.
Landlord will serve Resident with written notice before entry unless:
(i) Entry is due to an emergency, surrender or abandonment of the unit, or
(ii) Resident and Landlord agree orally to an entry to make agreed repairs or supply agreed services at an
approximate day and time within one week of the oral agreement, or,
(iii) Resident is present and consents to entry at the time of entry, or
(iv) To exhibit the unit to prospective or actual purchasers of the property, provided that Landlord has
notified Resident in writing of the oral notice that the property is for sale and that Resident may be
contacted to allow for an inspection.
18. MISSTATEMENTS ON APPLICATION: Resident has completed an application in connection with
executing this Lease. Landlord has relied upon the statements set forth in said application in deciding to rent
the Premises to Resident. Resident agrees any misstatements of fact in the Resident's application shall be
deemed a material and incurable breach of this Lease and shall entitle Landlord to serve Resident with a three
day notice and take any other action to terminate the tenancy.
19. RESIDENTIAL USE OF PREMISES: Resident agrees that the Premises are rented for residential use only
unless the Parties have executed a separate Live Work Addendum. Resident shall not use the Premises as a
business address, nor shall Resident conduct any business activities on the Premises. Conducting business
activities includes, without limitation, using the Premises as a mailing address for a business enterprise,
having a business telephone line in the Premises, having business clients meet with Resident at the Premises,
having business stationery setting forth the address of the Premises as a business address, assembling or

8
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

manufacturing any product upon the Premises, or otherwise holding out the Premises as the address of any
business. Resident may, however, to the extent consistent with the restrictions set forth in this section, use a
portion of the Premises as a "home office." Nothing set forth herein shall be deemed as disallowing any use of
the Premises that cannot be prohibited legally.
20. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING: Resident shall not assign this Lease nor sublet all or any part of the
Premises. Permitting any person to occupy the Premises who is not named as a Resident in this Lease or
authorized to occupy the Premises pursuant to this Lease shall be deemed an improper subletting of the
Premises and shall subject the tenancy to termination. Use of home-sharing or short-term rental websites is a
violation of this Section. Any attempted subletting or assignment in violation of this provision shall be voidable
at Landlord's discretion. Any assignment or subletting, including through home-sharing or short-term rental
platforms, may be treated by the Landlord as a non-curable material breach of this lease.
21. CONDITION OF PREMISES-ALTERATIONS: Resident has inspected and accepts the Premises, and all
improvements, furnishings and fixtures therein as being in good condition, and agrees to maintain the same in
said condition. Any exceptions to Resident's acceptance of the Premises must be set forth in the Move-In
Inspection Report executed by the Resident and Landlord and attached to this Lease as Addendum A.
Resident agrees not to alter, install fixtures or improvements in, install or remove major appliances (including
but not limited to washer/dryer, dishwasher, etc.), paint or redecorate the Premises or any part of the Property
without the prior written consent of Landlord. Resident waives all rights to make repairs at the expense of
Landlord, except and only to the extent same cannot be waived by law in which event same may only be
made by Resident if reasonable prior written notice of the condition affecting the habitability of the Premises
has been delivered to Landlord and such condition which requires such repairs has not been caused by
Resident or any of Resident's invitees or guests. All costs of restoring the Premises or Property to its prior
condition resulting from Resident's violation hereof or violation by Resident guests or invitees shall be paid by
Resident within three (3) days after written demand therefore. For the purposes of safety and quiet enjoyment
Resident shall not install or use portable washers or dryers on the Premises without Landlord's prior written
consent.

Addendum which is attached to and a part of this Lease.
24. LIABILITY/INDEMNIFICATION/HOLD HARMLESS:
(a) Landlord does not provide or guarantee a noise-free environment. Living in a community means that it is
likely Resident will be able to hear sounds common to a community environment while inside the Premises.
While Landlord will attempt to enforce quiet hours, the provision of such quiet hours shall not be deemed a
guarantee of any kind that Resident will not be exposed to common community noise while on the Property
and in the Premises.
(b) Landlord shall not be liable to Resident, occupants or to any guests or invitees of Resident for any claim,
damage, illness, physical injury or loss (including economic) to any person or property arising from any

loss which Resident may suffer as a result of or incidental to any such Cause at or near the Property.
(c) Resident understands and agrees that Landlord will not have any liability for loss or damage to Resident's
personal property. Resident agrees that the Agreement will not terminate and Landlord will not be liable for
any interruption of services or accommodations to Resident caused by casualty, strike, riot, orders or acts
of public authorities, acts of third parties, including other residents, or any other cause beyond Landlord's
control.
(d) Resident agrees to hold harmless, protect, indemnify, and defend Landlord from and against any claims
arising out of or relating to the use, occupancy or maintenance of the Premises by Resident. Resident
agrees Landlord shall have the right to appoint defense counsel, at Resident's expense, in the event of any
such claim against Landlord. Any insurance obtained by Resident or Landlord will not limit Resident's
liability, and Resident will be responsible for the payment of any deductible if there is a covered loss.
25. SUBORDINATION: This Lease and all rights of Resident arising hereunder are expressly agreed to be
subject and subordinate in all respects to the lien of any present or future mortgages which are or may be
placed upon the Property by Landlord or assigns of Landlord and to all other rights acquired by the holder of
any such mortgage(s). Resident agrees that Landlord may elect in its sole discretion upon Landlord's written

lender or other party who may acquire the Property through foreclosure or deed-in-lieu thereof provided that
such lender or other party agrees, whether prior to or subsequent to such foreclosure or acquisition of the
Property through deed-in-lieu thereof: (a) to recognize Resident as the tenant under this Lease, and (b) not to
disturb Resident's continued occupancy of the Premises prior to expiration of the term of this Lease unless
Resident is in breach thereof. Resident agrees to sign any documents reasonably requested by Landlord in
connection with this paragraph, including subordination agreements and estoppel certificates.
26. SUCCESSORS IN INTEREST: If the Property is sold or the ownership interest is otherwise transferred, the
successor in interest of Landlord shall be deemed the assignee of all rights arising hereunder, and shall be
entitled to enforce the provisions of this Lease as necessary against Resident. Nothing in this provision shall
be construed as conflicting or superseding the foregoing "SUBORDINATION" clause or as requiring a
continuation of the tenancy in the event of a foreclosure or other involuntary transfer of ownership.
27. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS: Resident agrees not to use or permit the Premises to be used
for any purpose which violates local, state or federal law, or engage in any illegal acts in or upon the Premises
or upon the grounds of the Community. Resident further agrees to defend Landlord against any claims arising
from, or relating to, and reimburse and indemnify Landlord for all claims, loss, damage, fines and penalties
alleged against or incurred by Landlord as a result of, Resident's alleged or actual violation of any statute,
ordinance, regulation or other governmental restriction.
28. COMPLIANCE WITH COMMUNITY HANDBOOK: Resident acknowledges receipt of a copy of the
Community Handbook ("Handbook"), which Handbook is incorporated into and made a part of this Lease.
Resident agrees to abide by said Handbook in all respects. Any Handbook terms may be changed on thirty
(30) days' notice, and Resident agrees to abide by any such changes. Failure to comply with the Handbook
shall be deemed a breach of this Lease.
29. NO SOLICITING: Solicitation is prohibited in the Community. If Resident is contacted by a solicitor, even if
that person resides at the Community, please contact Landlord immediately. Except as prohibited by
applicable law, soliciting of any kind by Resident, Resident's guests or Resident's invitees is a material

or maintain a nuisance, or disturb the peace or solitude or quiet enjoyment of any other Resident, neighbor

substances and the use or exhibition of firearms or ammunition on the Property. Such acts are prohibited.

to be done or keep any flammable or explosive materials or any substance considered dangerous,
hazardous or toxic under any governmental law or regulation in the Premises.

or which will cause a cancellation of or an increase in the premiums for any insurance for the Community.
(f) Resident is responsible for the conduct of Resident's guests or invitees while they are on the Property as
well as all household members (including minors). A Resident conducting any of the activities set forth in
this section, or who allows his or her guests, invitees or household members (including minors) to conduct
any of the activities set forth in this Section shall be in violation of this Agreement, and said activity shall be
grounds for Landlord's termination of Resident's tenancy with a three-day notice to quit.
31. ANIMALS: No animals are permitted on the Property or the Premises without the prior written consent of
the Landlord. Any such consent may be revoked at any time, with or without cause, by giving three (3) days
written notice. Except to the extent written permission is given, pets may not be brought upon the Property or
the Premises, whether such pets belong to Resident or to any other person, including Resident's guests or
invitees. The presence of any pets for which written permission has not been given or which, if given, is not
currently in force, even if such pets are "just visiting", shall be deemed a material breach of this Lease and
shall be cause for the service of a three (3) day notice to perform covenants and conditions or quit. If, in
accordance with the provisions of this paragraph a pet is permitted, Resident must execute an Animal
Addendum prior to any pet being allowed in the Premises or on the Property. If Resident has a pet without the
written consent of Landlord in addition to all other remedies of Landlord, Resident agrees to pay within three
(3) days of written demand therefore any and all carpet cleaning charges, fumigation costs and any and all
damages caused by unauthorized pets, even if such charges should exceed the amount of any and all
deposits held by Landlord. Accommodation Animals are not considered pets, but written permission must be
granted and an Animal Addendum executed before an accommodation animal is brought onto the Premises. A
disabled individual who requires an animal in order to be able to use and enjoy the Premises or the Property
should contact the Landlord before bringing the animal onto the Premises and request an accommodation to
this lease provision. All accommodation requests will be processed in accordance with applicable laws.
32. LIQUID-FILLED FURNITURE AND AQUARIUMS: Waterbeds and other liquid-filled furniture are allowed
only under the regulations of California Civil Code Section 1940.5, which requires proper insurance coverage
for waterbeds. A certificate of insurance evidencing waterbed coverage must be provided to Landlord prior to
Resident bringing any liquid-filled furniture into the Premises. Resident must provide Landlord with at least
twenty-four (24) hours' written notice prior to the installation, removal or movement of any liquid-filled furniture
and Landlord has the right to be present at the time of such installation, removal or movement. Installation,
movement and removal must be done in accordance with standards set by the manufacturer, retailer or state
law, whichever provides the highest degree of safety. No aquariums over ten (10) gallons are permitted
without prior written consent of Landlord. If Resident installs any liquid-filled furniture, Landlord has the right to
increase the Security Deposit by an amount to be determined in the written authorization, which in no event
shall be more than one-half of one month's rent.
33. SMOKING:
(a) Resident must comply with all applicable laws and House Rules regarding smoking on the Premises.
Landlord may change its smoking policies at any time after providing Resident with thirty (30) days written
notice. Landlord is not required to advise Resident of any changes in the law with respect to smoking on
the Property. Resident is responsible for complying with all laws relating to smoking and thirty days' notice
is not required if a policy change is implemented to comply with a new law or ordinance.
(b) To the extent smoking is allowed anywhere on the Property, Residents who smoke, or allow smoking by
their invitees or guests, must ensure the smoke does not disturb the quiet enjoyment of other residents.
Secondhand tobacco smoke may seep and drift through open doors, windows, and ventilation ducts, which
may constitute a disturbance to those residents who do not smoke, particularly those with health and
allergy-related sensitivities. Pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement, Resident agrees not to harass,
annoy, or endanger any other resident or person, or create or maintain a nuisance, or disturb the peace or
solitude of any other resident. Resident is responsible for the conduct of guests or invitees while they are
on the Property. Violation of this provision may result in the immediate termination of Resident's tenancy as

11
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

provided herein and by law.


(c) Landlord does not provide or guarantee a smoke-free environment and smoking may be permitted in
individual units and possibly in some outdoor common areas, except where prohibited by law. As such,
nothing herein shall be deemed a guarantee of any kind that Resident will not be exposed to tobacco
smoke while on the Property and Landlord expressly denies any such assertion.
(d) The smoking provisions of this Agreement may be amended by or superseded by an addendum to this
Agreement.
(e) If the Property is governed by a local ordinance which requires lease provisions different than what is
provided in this Section, that ordinance controls, but only to the extent required by applicable law and then
only so long as the provision of the applicable law is not repealed or held invalid by a court of competent
jurisdiction. The Parties agree to execute any addendum relating to smoking which may be required by law
after the execution of this Agreement.
34. SMOKE DETECTORS: Resident acknowledges that the Premises are equipped with an operable smoke
detector(s). Resident agrees to not interfere with the presence or operability of such smoke detectors and to
report immediately to Landlord, in writing, any defects in the condition of any smoke detectors. Resident
further agrees that, if the smoke detector(s) is/are battery operated, pursuant to California Civil Code Section
1942.1, as part of the consideration of the rental, Resident assumes responsibility to: (a) ensure the battery is
in operating condition at all times; and (b) replace the battery as needed. Under no circumstances shall
Resident remove the battery of a smoke detector without immediately replacing the battery with a new one.
35. FIRE SPRINKLER(S): If the Premises is equipped with fire sprinklers, Resident agrees not to interfere with
their operation in any way. The following actions are prohibited: throwing items at the sprinklers, hanging items
on the sprinklers, painting the sprinklers, blocking areas around sprinklers and tapping into or otherwise
blocking water lines to sprinklers. Resident shall immediately report to Landlord any broken or damaged
sprinklers in the Premises,
36. CARBON-MONOXIDE DEVICE(S): If a carbon-monoxide device has been installed within the Premises,
Resident acknowledges that the carbon-monoxide device was operable at the time Resident took possession
of the Premises. Resident is responsible for notifying Landlord if Resident becomes aware of an inoperable or
deficient carbon-monoxide device within the Premises. Landlord shall correct any reported deficiencies or
inoperabilities in the carbon-monoxide device. Resident agrees to not interfere with the presence or operability
of any carbon-monoxide device. Resident further agrees that, if the carbon-monoxide device(s) is battery
operated, pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1942.1, as part of the consideration of the rental, Resident
assumes responsibility to: (a) ensure the battery is in operating condition at all times; and (b) replace the
battery as needed. Under no circumstances shall Resident remove the battery of a carbon-monoxide device
without immediately replacing the battery with a new one.
37. EMINENT DOMAIN OR CONDEMNATION: Should the Premises or the land on which the Premises are
located, or any part thereof, or any portion of the Community, be condemned or taken for public use, then, in
that event, upon any order for possession or judgment of condemnation, this Lease, at the option of Landlord,
shall be voidable, and Resident's right to occupancy shall terminate. Landlord shall be entitled to receive any
and all just compensation offered or awarded, and Resident shall not be entitled to receive any amount of any
settlement or award of compensation arising out of any such eminent domain or condemnation.
38. SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO OR DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES:
(a) If the Premises or Property are damaged by fire, flood or other casualty, necessitating repairs that require
Resident to vacate the Premises for any length of time, in the sole and absolute discretion of Landlord,
Landlord shall have the option either (1) to repair the damage or otherwise restore the Premises, with this
Agreement continuing in full force and effect, or (2) give notice to Resident, at any time after such damage
occurs or repairs become necessary, terminating this Agreement as of a date to be specified in such
notice. Landlord shall not be required to repair any damage by fire or other cause or to make any repairs of
any property installed in the Premises by Resident.
(b) If Landlord elects to terminate, Resident's tenancy shall terminate on the date specified by Landlord, and
all interest of the Resident in the Premises shall terminate. If Landlord elects to repair the damage and/or
make the significant repairs and continue this Agreement, the "DUTY TO COOPERATE" and
"SIGNIFICANT REPAIRS" provisions of this Agreement shall apply. Under no circumstance shall Landlord

12
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

have any obligation to pay lodging costs or other expenses to Resident, except as shall be required by law
or ordinance.
39. RENOVATIONS AND REPAIRS:
(a) Landlord may undertake renovations, improvements and/or repairs to the Premises from time to time.
which may require Landlord or Landlord's agent to enter the Premises and may also require Resident to
vacate the Premises for any length of time. Resident must allow such entry and must vacate the Premises
as needed and otherwise cooperate with Landlord in its efforts to perform the work. To the extent possible,
Landlord shall give Resident written notice of the need to enter the Premises and potentially vacate the
Premises, which notice shall include Landlord's best estimation of the length of time Landlord anticipates
Resident will need to be absent from the Premises.
(b) If the renovations, improvements and/or repairs are required because of the conduct of Resident or the
conduct of Resident's household, invitees or guests (such as misuse of plumbing, causing a fire, etc.), then
Landlord shall be relieved of any obligation to provide or pay for alternative accommodations and Resident
shall remain responsible for both rent and the cost of alternative lodging during the time when Resident
must vacate the Premises for any work to be completed. Resident shall be fully liable for all loss and/or
destruction, whether partial or whole, caused by Resident or any of Resident's invitees or guests.
40. DUTY TO COOPERATE: Failure to vacate upon Landlord notice or return to the Premises or otherwise
cooperate with Landlord's efforts to conduct renovations, improvements and/or repairs at the Property is a
material breach of this Lease and grounds for termination of this Agreement.
41. ENVIRONMENTAL INDEMNIFICATION: As additional consideration for Landlord entering into this Lease,
Resident, for themselves, their heirs, successors, assignees, guests, invitees and all others claiming by,
through or under Resident, or who may live in, occupy, use or reside in the Premises, hereby agrees to
indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the Landlord and/or its agents, partners, officers, directors,
employees, or shareholders ("Landlord Affiliates") against and from any and all actions, causes of action,
claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages and expenses of whatsoever kind, including, but not limited to,
attorney's fees and costs and court costs at both the trial and appellate levels, that any or all of the Landlord
Affiliates may at any time sustain or incur by reason of any and all claims asserted against them to the extent
that such claims allege, arise out of or are based upon any hazardous or potentially health affecting
substances brought, or allowed to be brought, into the Premises and/or the Property by Resident or any
guest(s), invitees(s) or other person(s) living in, occupying, using or residing in the Premises.
42. VEHICLES: Resident agrees to register all vehicles with the management and comply with the Community
Handbook and Handbook Provisions, addenda to this Lease and all posted signs related to vehicles and
parking on the Property.
43. RECREATIONAL FACILITIES:
(a) Resident recognizes that the Property may have facilities, areas and amenities that may be hazardous for
persons not complying with the Rules, posted signs or the provisions of this Lease or who are unable to
understand or appreciate the risks associated with such facilities, areas or amenities due to age or
capacity. Such facilities, areas and amenities may include but are not limited to: (a) swimming pools and/or
spas with or without supervision or lifeguard; (b) fountains and/or ponds; (c) open balconies or verandas;
(d) recreation room and office; (e) sprinklers and other landscape maintenance devices; (f) sidewalks and
walkways; (g) stairways and/or elevators; (h) parking lots; and (i) tanning beds. Resident assumes all risk
associated with use of any facilities or amenities in the Premises or at the Community by Resident,
Resident's household members (including minors) and Resident's invitees or guests.

and Recreational Facility Use Agreement, Waiver of Rights and General Lease before using any
recreational facilities available at the Community. Use of recreational facilities is subject to the terms set
forth in that Agreement and applicable provisions in the Community Handbook as well as posted signs and
Landlord's instructions.
44. CRIMINAL CONDUCT PROHIBITED:
(a) Resident and Resident's Occupants whether on or off of the property; and Resident and Resident's
Occupant's guests and invitees, are prohibited from:

13
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

(i) Engaging in any criminal activity, including drug-related criminal activity, on or off the Property. Drug
related criminal activity shall mean the illegal manufacture, sale, distribution, use, possession and
possession with intent to manufacture, sell, distribute, or use of an illegal or controlled substance (as
defined in Section 102 of the Controlled Substance Act [21 U.S.C. 802], which includes marijuana).
(ii) Engaging in any act intended to facilitate criminal activity or permitting the dwelling unit to be used for
criminal activity.
(iii) Engaging in the unlawful manufacturing, selling, using (being under the influence of), storing, keeping
or giving of an illegal or controlled substance as defined in Health and Safety Code 11350, 11351,
11377, 11378, 11550, and 11379.6, at any locations, whether on or off the dwelling unit premises.
(iv) Engaging in any illegal activity, including, but not limited to: prostitution as defined in Penal Code
647(b); criminal street gang activity as defined in Penal Code 186.22 et seq.; threatening or
intimidating as prohibited in Penal Code 422; assault and battery as prohibited in Penal Code 240/242;

(v) Violation of law, regulation or ordinance that jeopardizes the health, safety or welfare of Landlord, its
agents or other residents, or involving imminent or actual serious property damage.
(b) VIOLATION OF ANY OF THE ABOVE PROVISIONS SHALL BE A MATERIAL AND IRREPARABLE
VIOLATION OF THE LEASE AND GOOD CAUSE FOR IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OF RESIDENT'S
TENANCY. A single violation of any of the provisions of this Section may be deemed a serious, material
and irreparable violation of the Lease. It is understood and agreed that a single violation shall be good
cause for immediate termination of the Lease. Landlord may, in its sole discretion, determine whether a
violation has occurred and need not (a) await any court or law enforcement determination before
determining to terminate Resident's tenancy under this Section.
(c) Resident hereby authorizes property management/owner to use police generated reports against Resident
for any such violation as reliable direct evidence, and/or as business records as a hearsay exception, in all
eviction hearings.
(d) Resident also agrees to be responsible for the actions of Resident's occupants, Resident's guests and
invitees, and Resident's occupant's guests and invitees, regardless of whether Resident knew or should
have known about any such actions. A guest or invitee shall be anyone who Resident or Resident's
occupant gives access to or allows on the premises or in the rental unit.
(e) Resident understands and acknowledges that the arrest of Resident, Resident's Occupants, or Resident's
or Resident's Occupants' guests during Resident's tenancy may be grounds for termination under this
Section 44.
45. SAFETY CONCERNS:
(a) Landlord makes no representations or guarantees to Resident concerning the security of the Premises or
the Community, including, but not limited to individual units, common areas and mail areas. Landlord is
under no obligation to Resident to provide any security measure or take any action not required by statute.
The presence of courtesy patrols, patrol cars, access gates, surveillance cameras or other deterrents do
not guarantee that crime can or will be prevented. All such systems are subject to personnel absenteeism,
human error, mechanical malfunctions and tampering. Resident is responsible for planning and taking
action with respect to the safety of Resident and their property as if such systems and deterrents did not
exist.
(b) Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, Landlord does not accept packages, letters, or other deliveries
(collectively "Deliveries") on behalf of Resident. Resident acknowledges that Landlord does not accept any
responsibility or liability for any lost, stolen, and/or damaged, Deliveries and Resident agrees to hold
Landlord and Landlord's agents harmless from any loss or damage related to any of Resident's Deliveries.
(c) Landlord may install surveillance cameras in some of the common areas of the Property. These cameras
may or may not be monitored and the footage recorded by these cameras may or may not be kept by
Landlord for any length of time. Landlord may remove such cameras, or install additional cameras, at any
time without notice to Resident. Recordings made by surveillance equipment, if any, are the sole and

14
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

exclusive property of Landlord and shall not be provided to Resident. Landlord may provide such
recordings, if any exist, to law enforcement officers upon request.
(d) Resident may only install cameras within the Premises with written permission of Landlord, which may or
may not be allowed in Landlord's sole discretion. If approved, such cameras may not infringe on the
privacy of other residents nor interfere with the electrical, wireless or other systems in the Premises or the
Community.
(e) Landlord has no obligation to obtain criminal background checks on any Resident and bears no
responsibility or liability related to the criminal background or actions (whether past, present or future) of
any person, even if Landlord has actually run a criminal background check on applicants. Resident shall
not rely on the fact that Landlord may have run a criminal background check on Resident or any other
applicant when deciding whether to enter into this Agreement. Background checks are limited to the
information actually reviewed and are not a guarantee that a person with a criminal background does not
reside at the Community or that someone living on the Property will not commit a crime in the future.
Landlord has not made and does not make any representations as to the background of any existing or
future Resident and Landlord is under no obligation to run background checks on any existing Resident or
future applicant.
(f) Resident agrees to report immediately all suspected or actual criminal activity to the appropriate local law
enforcement agencies and, after doing so, to Landlord, and shall provide Landlord with such law
enforcement agency's incident report number upon request. If Resident receives a copy of any law
enforcement agency's incident report for an incident that occurred on the Property and said incident
impacted the Premises, the Property or other residents at the Property, Resident shall provide a copy of
said incident report to Landlord upon request.
46. MEGAN'S LAW DATABASE:
(a) Notice: Pursuant to Section 290.46 of the Penal Code, information about specified registered sex offenders
is made available to the public via an internet web site maintained by the Department of Justice at
www.meganslaw.ca.gov. Depending on an offender's criminal history, this information will include either the
address at which the offender resides or the community of residence and ZIP Code in which he or she
resides.
(b) Since the information is equally available to Resident and Landlord, and Landlord cannot discriminate
against registered sex offenders pursuant to Penal Code Section 290.46 et seq., Landlord has not made
any inquiry of any applicant or resident as to whether he or she is a registered sex offender. Resident is
advised that Landlord may not notify Resident if Landlord learns or is advised that a registered sex
offender is living in the Community. The existence of registered sex offenders in the Community is not
grounds for terminating this Agreement.
47. OPTION TO TERMINATE:
(a) Resident is expected to remain a Resident for the entire term specified in this Lease. If Resident fails to do
so, Resident will be responsible to Landlord for all damages provided by law, including (but not limited to)
rent due through the end of the Lease term, minus rents paid by a replacement tenant (if any). This amount
will vary depending upon how long it takes the Landlord to find a replacement tenant. Therefore, this
amount cannot be determined in advance and it is difficult to estimate.
(b) To avoid this uncertainty, Resident may choose to exercise an early termination option. Resident may
choose to pay a flat fee in advance to terminate the lease early, rather than remaining liable for rent due
through the end of the lease term. To exercise this option, Resident must deliver to Manager:
(i) A written notice stating that Resident has elected to exercise this option;
(ii) An early termination option fee in the amount set forth in FLP Paragraph O and reimbursement of all
move-in concessions as provided in any concession agreement executed by the Parties; and
(iii) Rent and other amounts due through the accelerated termination date.
(c) After making a reasonable endeavor to estimate accurately the approximate costs associated with an early
termination of the lease, which the Parties agree is difficult or impossible to ascertain at the inception of
this Lease since we cannot predict at this time how long it will take to prepare and relet the Premises at
some future date or the costs associated with marketing the Premises, Resident and Landlord agree a

15
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

termination charge equal to the amount set forth in FLP Paragraph O is presumed to be the amount of
damage suffered by Landlord if Resident elects to terminate this Agreement before the termination date set
forth in the Agreement.
(d) When Landlord has received the written notice and payment, and has signed the notice, the Lease
termination date will be amended. The new termination date will be the date specified in the notice which
must be at least thirty (30) days after the written election and payment are given to Landlord.
(e) Exercise of the early termination option will affect only Resident's rent obligations after the accelerated
termination date; Resident must comply with all other Lease obligations.
(f) The notice will not accelerate the termination date if:
(i) Resident is in default under the lease at the time that Resident gives notice of Resident's exercise of
the option;
(ii) Resident provides the notice unaccompanied by the fee above; or
(iii) Resident does not properly exercise the early termination option by following the procedure specified
above, but vacates the property before the termination date specified in the Lease.
48. RENTER'S INSURANCE REQUIREMENT: Landlord does not insure Resident's personal property or
actions. Property or liability insurance coverage purchased by Landlord is not intended to protect against loss
or damage (i.e., burglary, vandalism, fire, smoke, or any other perils) to Resident's personal property or
belongings. Further, if the Premises or Property are damaged because of the actions of Resident or Resident's
guest, Resident may be financially responsible for the damage. Unless Renter's Insurance is merely
encouraged in FLP Paragraph P above, then Resident's obligation to purchase renter's insurance is set forth
in the Satisfaction of Renter's Insurance Requirement addendum attached hereto. A breach of this section or
non-payment is considered a material breach of the lease. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to
the extent Renter's Insurance is purchased by Resident, such insurance shall be primary insurance and shall
not be considered contributory insurance with any insurance policies of Landlord. Prior to seeking any claim
against Landlord for loss or damage, Resident shall first exhaust any applicable coverage it may have under
Resident's Renter's Insurance.
49. ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement, including all addenda and the Community Handbook, set forth the
entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the matters set forth in it. It shall not be altered nor
modified unless such alteration or modification is in writing and signed by all signatories to this Lease, unless
the change is required by law, is the result of an error or omission by Landlord, or Landlord provides the
required notice for the change as required by law. No verbal agreements or representations have been made
or relied upon by either party or any agent or employee of either party, and neither party nor any agent or
employee of either party is entitled to alter any provisions of this Lease by any verbal representations or
agreements to be made subsequent to the execution of this Lease. The foregoing notwithstanding, if Resident
holds over after the expiration of the Lease term on a month-to-month holdover basis, Landlord may change
any provision of this Lease without the consent of Resident in the manner prescribed by California Civil Code
Section 827.
50. SECTION HEADINGS: The section headings are inserted only for convenience and are not intended to
define or limit the scope or intent of any clause.
51. SEVERABILITY AND PROVISIONS REQUIRED BY LAW: If a provision or paragraph of this Lease is
legally invalid, or declared by a court to be unenforceable, such provision or paragraph will be deemed deleted
and the rest of this Lease will remain in effect. To the extent any provision of this Agreement is in direct conflict
with any provisions of applicable law, such provision is hereby deleted. Any provision specifically required by
applicable law which is not included in this Lease is hereby inserted as an additional provision of this Lease,
but only to the extent required by applicable law and then only so long as the provision of the applicable law is
not repealed or held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction.

a member of the State National Guard serving on full-time duty, or a civil service technician with a National
Guard unit, and receives change-of-duty orders to depart from the local area ("local area" shall mean a
thirty-five (35) mile radius from the Premises) for longer than ninety (90) days, or is relieved from such duty,

16

copy of the official orders which warrant termination of this Lease. Military orders authorizing base housing in
the local area in which the Premises is located do not constitute change-of-duty under this paragraph.

any rent or other sum payable under this Lease on the date it becomes due; (b) breaches any other provision,
term, covenant or condition of this Lease; (c) vacates or abandons the Premises before expiration of the full
term of this Lease, or any extension of the term; (d) permits the leasehold interest of Resident to be levied
upon or attached by process of law; or (e) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors.
54. WAIVER: Landlord's failure to require strict compliance with any provision of this Lease or to exercise any
rights arising under this Lease shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to enforce any such provision
or to insist upon any such right. The fact that Landlord may have accepted late payment(s) on one or more
occasions shall not be deemed a waiver of Landlord's right to insist upon timely payment of rent nor to
exercise any remedy available for late payment of rent. Acceptance of rent following a breach of this Lease
shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such breach. No custom or practice which may develop between
the Parties in the course of tenancy shall be construed to waive the right of Landlord to enforce any provision
of this Lease.
55. USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION: Landlord uses personal information provided by Resident, or
collected by Landlord, in connection with Resident's tenancy at the Property (including without limitation,
identifiers, characteristics, commercial information, employment-related information, audio and/or video data

mobile app), usage information regarding use of Landlord's web sites and mobile apps, inferences, and other
personal information) for Landlord's operational business purposes related to Resident's being a prospective,
current or former resident. As of January 1, 2020, California residents can find Landlord's California Privacy
Notice on Landlord's web site at www.essexapartmenthomes.com/privacy-policy.
56. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE: Time is of the essence with respect to the provisions of this Lease. This
provision shall be interpreted in its strictest sense irrespective of the relative hardship to the Parties.
57. ATTORNEY'S FEES: In the event of any litigation relating to this Agreement or the rights or liabilities of any
party arising under this Agreement, the prevailing party of such litigation shall be entitled to its costs, including
reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in such litigation, not to exceed a maximum total of two thousand dollars
($2,000) fees and costs. If any such litigation is dismissed prior to trial, the parties agree that there shall be no
prevailing party for purposes of an award of attorney's fees and/or costs. An unlawful detainer action shall be
considered an action relating to this Lease and thus subject to this provision.
58. SURRENDER: Upon expiration or termination of this Lease, Resident shall vacate and surrender the
Premises to Landlord vacant of all occupants and in the condition required to be maintained under this
Agreement. Resident shall also return all keys and remote access devices (if applicable) to Landlord or pay
Landlord's then applicable charge for non-returned keys and remotes (if applicable). With respect to any
personal property remaining on the Premises after the expiration or termination of this Lease, Landlord may
dispose of the personal property as allowed by law.

ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability only without invalidating or otherwise affecting the remainder
of this addendum or the Lease.

into this Agreement.
3. TERM: The term of this Agreement shall commence on the November 18, 2021 and shall continue from the first day of

which is subsequently dishonored by the bank is difficult or impossible to ascertain, but the Parties agree that Landlord
does, in the event of a dishonored check, incur certain costs, such as additional bookkeeping and administrative charges,
bank charges, lost opportunity cost of the late payment, etc. The Parties accordingly agree that, any time the Landlord
does not receive payment due to Resident's check being dishonored, or returned for Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF), Resident
agrees to pay a charge of $25.00 for the first dishonored check and $35.00 for any subsequent dishonored check. Both
parties agree that the payment of these sums does not constitute a license to pay by dishonored check.

subleasing, assignment, or licensing of space allowed.

ten (10) days' written notice. Any violation of any Parking Rules or Regulations will result in termination of this Agreement
upon three (3) days' written notice from Landlord.
12. NO LIABILITY/INSURANCE: Landlord does not provide any insurance insuring Resident's vehicle or other personal

MOLD NOTIFICATION
This Mold Addendum ("Addendum") dated October 12, 2021 is attached to and made a part of the lease agreement dated
November 18, 2021 (the "Lease") by and between Essex Management Corporation, as agent for Owner ("Landlord"), and
Cynthia Clark, Katheryne Clark, and William Bill Clark (individually and collectively referred to herein as "Resident") for the
rental of the premises located at 258 Palm Valley Boulevard #303, San Jose, CA 95123 ("Premises" or "Unit") within the
community commonly known as Palma Sorrento (the "Community" or "Property"). All terms not specifically defined herein
shall have the same definition as found in the Lease. Resident and Landlord agree as follows:
1. Mold consists of naturally occurring microscopic organisms. Mold breaks down and feeds on organic matter in the
environment. When moldy materials are damaged or disturbed, mold spores and other materials may be released in the
air. Exposure can occur through inhalation or direct contact. Most molds are not harmful to most people, but it is believed
that certain types and amounts of mold may lead to adverse health effects in some people. In order to prevent organic
growth within the Premises, Resident specifically agrees to:
a. KEEP THE PREMISES CLEAN:
• Maintain good housekeeping practices and regularly dust, vacuum and mop to keep the Premises free of dirt and
debris that can contribute to mold growth
• Use household cleaners on hard surfaces
• Remove garbage regularly and remove moldy or rotting items promptly from the Premises (whether food, wet
clothing, or other material)
b. CONTROL MOISTURE IN THE PREMISES AND INCREASE AIR CIRCULATION:
• Use hood vents when cooking
• Use exhaust fans when bathing/showering until moisture is removed from the bathroom
• Hang shower curtain inside the bathtub when showering or securely close shower doors
• Leave bathroom and shower doors open after use
• Use air conditioning, heating and/or fans as necessary to keep air circulating throughout the Property
• Water all indoor plants outside
• Close windows and doors (when appropriate) to prevent rain and other water from coming inside the Premises
• Open windows when appropriate to increase air circulation
• Wipe up visible moisture
• If a dryer is installed in the Property, ensure that the vent is properly connected and clear of any obstructions and
clean the lint screen regularly
• Ensure good air circulation in closets, cupboards and shelves by periodically keeping them open, not stacking
items tightly, and/or using products to control moisture
• Regularly empty dehumidifier, if used
c. PERIODICALLY INSPECT THE UNIT FOR MOISTURE AND MOLD:
The most reliable methods for identifying the presence of elevated amounts of mold are (1) smell and (2) routine visual
inspections for mold or signs of moisture and water damage. Resident agrees to conduct an inspection of the Premises
(both visually and by smell) for the presence of mold growth inside the Premises at least once per month. The
inspection will include but is not limited to:
• Window frames, baseboards, walls and carpets
• The ceiling
• Any currently or formerly damp material made of cellulose (such as wallpaper, books, papers, and newspapers)
• Appliances (including washers/dryers/dishwashers and refrigerators)
• Around all plumbing fixtures (toilets, bathtubs, showers, sinks, and below sinks)
• Areas with limited air circulation such as closets, shelves and cupboards
• Personal property
d. PROMPTLY REPORT TO LANDLORD IN WRITING:
• Visible or suspected mold that Resident does not clean as explained below. Mold may range in color from orange
to green, brown, and/or black. There is often a musty odor present.
• Overflows or dripping from showers, bath, sink, toilet, washer, refrigerator, air conditioner

KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

• Plumbing problems
• Discoloration of walls, baseboards, doors, window frames, ceilings
• Loose, missing or failing grout or caulk around tubs, showers, sinks, faucets, countertops
• Clothes dryer vent leaks
• Any non-operational windows, doors, fans, heating or air conditioning units
• Any evidence of leaks or excessive moisture in the Premises or on the Property
• Any maintenance needed at the Premises or Property
e. RESIDENT AGREES TO NOT:
• Bring any personal property into the Premises that may contain high levels of mold, especially "soft possessions"
such as couches, chairs, mattresses, and pillows
• Stack items against walls in a manner that decreases air circulation and may lead to mold
• Maintain an excessive number of indoor plants
• Maintain a fish tank or other water filled container without Landlord's written consent
2. CLEANING SMALL AREAS OF MOLD: If a small amount of mold has grown on a non-porous surface such as ceramic tile,
Formica, vinyl flooring, metal, or plastic, and the mold is not due to an ongoing leak or moisture problem, resident agrees
to clean the area with soap (or detergent) and a small amount of water, let the surface dry, and then within 24 hours apply
a non-staining cleaner such as Lysol Disinfectant, Tilex Mildew Remover, or Clorox Cleanup. If Resident is unable or
unwilling to clean the area, Residents will promptly notify Landlord so that Landlord can clean area.
3. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS: Resident agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Landlord and
Landlord's related parties (past and present subsidiary corporations, affiliates, successors, assigns officers, directors,
property managers, agents, attorneys, employees and representatives) from claims, liabilities, losses, damages and
expenses (including attorneys' fees), that they incur that are related to the Resident's breach of the Resident's obligations
to Landlord. Resident is responsible for the action (or inaction) of Resident's household members, guests and agents.
4. COOPERATION WITH REMEDIATION: If elevated mold levels may exist at the property, Resident agrees to temporarily
vacate the Premises to allow for investigation and remediation, to control water intrusion, or allow other repairs to the
Property, if requested by Landlord. Resident agrees to comply with all instructions and requirements necessary to prepare
the Premises for investigation and remediation, to control water intrusion, to control mold growth, or to make repairs.
Storage, cleaning, removal, or replacement of contaminated or potentially contaminated personal property will be
Resident's responsibility unless the elevated mold growth was the result of Landlord's negligence, intentional wrongdoing
or violation of law. Landlord is not responsible for any condition about which Landlord is not aware. Resident agrees to
provide Landlord with copies of all records, documents, sampling data and other material relating to any water leak,
excessive moisture, mold conditions in the Premises as soon as Resident obtains them.
5. SEVERABILITY: If any provision of this Addendum or the Lease is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such
provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability only without invalidating or otherwise
affecting the remainder of this addendum or the Lease.

SMOKING POLICY ADDENDUM


(City of San Jose)
This Smoking Policy Addendum ("Addendum") dated October 12, 2021 is attached to and made a part of the
lease dated November 18, 2021 (the "Lease") by and between Essex Property Trust, Inc., as agent for Owner
("Landlord"), and Cynthia Clark, Katheryne Clark, and William Bill Clark ("Resident") for unit number 303 (the
"Unit") in Palma Sorrento (the "Property"). All terms not specifically defined herein shall have the same definition
as found in the Lease.
1. PURPOSE: The parties desire to mitigate: (i) the irritation and known health effects of secondhand smoke; (ii)
the increased maintenance, cleaning, and redecorating costs from smoking; (iii) the increased risk of fire from
smoking; and (iv) the high cost of fire insurance for properties where smoking is permitted.
2. DEFINITION OF SMOKING: "Smoke" or "Smoking" means combustion or subsequent disposal of any lighted
pipe, or lighted cigar or lighted cigarette of any kind or the lighting of a pipe, cigar or a cigarette of any kind, or
any similar article or any other similar combustible substance in any manner or in any form.
3. DEFINITION OF COMMON AREA: "Common Area" means the areas of the Property that are open to public
access or to unrestricted common access by all residents.
4. NON-SMOKING AREAS: Resident agrees and acknowledges the following Smoking restrictions at this
Property. Resident and members of Resident's household shall not Smoke tobacco products in these
designated areas, nor shall Resident permit any guest or visitor of Resident to do so.
a. Smoking is prohibited in Resident's Unit.
b. Smoking is prohibited in all indoor and outdoor Common Areas of the Community, including but not limited
to lobbies, hallways, stairwells, elevators, escalators, community rooms, outdoor eating areas, play areas,
swimming pools, lawns, gardens, yards and driveways.
c. Smoking is permitted in specifically designated and clearly marked Smoking areas, if any.
5. PROMOTION OF NO-SMOKING POLICY: Resident shall inform his or her guests of the Non-Smoking Areas.
Resident or members of the household will not permit or facilitate Smoking activity in any Non-Smoking Area
regardless of whether the individual engaging in such activity is a member of the household or is a guest.
6. LANDLORD NOT GUARANTOR OF SMOKE-FREE ENVIRONMENT: Resident acknowledges that Landlord's
adoption of Non-Smoking Areas does not make the Landlord the guarantor of the Resident's health or that the
areas listed in Paragraph 4 above will be free of Smoke; however, Landlord shall take reasonable steps to
enforce this Addendum. Landlord shall not be required to take any specific steps in response to Smoking
unless Landlord has actual knowledge or has been provided written notice.
7. MATERIALITY OF BREACH: Resident agrees and acknowledges that it is a material breach of the lease for
the Resident, or any other person subject to the control of the Resident or present by invitation or permission
of the Resident, to engage in Smoking in any Non-Smoking Areas, or otherwise violate any provision of this
Addendum. Resident further understands that breach of this Addendum by the Resident shall be deemed a
material breach of the Lease and grounds for immediate termination of the Lease by the Landlord.
8. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES: To the extent provided by applicable law, all lawful occupants of the
Apartment Community are express third-party beneficiaries of this Addendum and all the clauses set forth
herein. If Resident or any Occupant or Guest breaches this Addendum or any Occupant knowingly allows your
Guests to breach this Addendum, you potentially will be liable to us and to any lawful Occupant of the
Apartment Community who is exposed to secondhand smoke because of that breach.
9. DISCLAIMER: Resident acknowledges that this Addendum and Landlord's efforts to designate Non-Smoking
Areas do not in any way change the standard of care that the Landlord would have to any Resident or
household to render buildings and premises designated as Non-Smoking any safer, more habitable, or
improved in terms of air quality than any other rental premises. Landlord specifically disclaims any implied or

34
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM

express warranties that the building common areas or Resident's Unit will have any higher or improved air
quality standards than any other rental property. Landlord cannot and does not warrant or promise that the
Unit or any other portion of the property including common areas will be free from secondhand Smoke.
Resident acknowledges that Landlord's ability to police, monitor or enforce this Addendum is dependent in
significant part on voluntary compliance by Resident and Resident's guests. Resident further acknowledges
that certain units may continue to be permitted to Smoke.
10. DUTY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAWS: Resident and Landlord agree to comply with all applicable
laws relating to Smoking at this Property.
11. REMAINING TERMS: The terms of the Lease, and all attachments and addenda to the Lease, are and shall
remain the same and in full force and effect except as modified in this Addendum.
12. If any provision of this Addendum or the Lease is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability only without invalidating or otherwise
affecting the remainder of this addendum or the Lease. Except as specifically stated herein, all other terms
and conditions of the Lease shall remain unchanged. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Addendum and the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Addendum shall control.

RENTER'S INSURANCE REQUIREMENT ADDENDUM


This Renter's Insurance Requirement Addendum ("Addendum") dated November 18, 2021 is attached to and made a part of
the lease agreement dated November 18, 2021 (the "Lease") by and between Essex Management Corporation, as agent for
Owner ("Landlord"), and Cynthia Clark, Katheryne Clark, and William Bill Clark (individually and collectively referred to
herein as "Resident") for the rental of the premises located at 258 Palm Valley Boulevard #303, San Jose, CA 95123
("Premises" or "Unit") within the community commonly known as Palma Sorrento (the "Community" or "Property"). All terms
not specifically defined in this Addendum shall have the same definition as found in the Lease. Landlord and Resident agree
as follows:
1. Landlord does not insure Resident's personal property or liability. Property and liability insurance obtained by Landlord is
not intended to protect against loss or damage (for example from burglary, vandalism, fire, smoke, or any other perils) to
Resident's personal property. Similarly, if other persons, the Premises or Property are damaged because of the actions of
Resident or Resident's guests, Resident is financially responsible for the damage.
2. Unless Renter's Insurance is merely encouraged in the Lease, Resident's purchase of renter's insurance is mandatory
under the Agreement and the following provisions will apply:
(a) Throughout Resident's tenancy, Resident must maintain a renter's insurance policy, at no cost or expense to Landlord.
The insurance policy must have personal liability coverage of at least the amount $100,000.00 per occurrence.
(b) The policy must be written for a term of at least one year, or the term of the lease, whichever is less. The policy must
name Landlord as an "Interested Party."
(c) Before the beginning of Resident's tenancy, Resident must deliver to Landlord a certified copy of the insurance policy
or certificates of insurance evidencing the existence and amounts of the required insurance. At least thirty (30) days
before the expiration date of the policy, Resident must furnish Landlord with evidence of renewal or "an insurance
binder" evidencing renewal.
(d) The insurance may be issued by any company of Resident's choosing, provided that the insurance company is
licensed or admitted to transact business in California, and maintains during the policy term a "General Policyholders
Rating" of at least a B+, V, in the most current issue of "Best Insurance Guide".
(e) Resident may not do anything or allow any action that invalidates the policy. Failure to maintain renter's insurance as
specified above is a material breach of the Lease.
(f) Each Resident must maintain a renter's insurance policy complying with this paragraph 2; however, it shall be
permissible for multiple Residents to maintain coverage under the same policy with the insurance policy or certificate of
insurance naming each person as an Insured, or Additional Insured. Each adult Resident added to the Lease must
deliver to Landlord a certified copy of their insurance policy or certificate of insurance evidencing the existence and
amounts of the required insurance at the time they are added to the Lease.
3. Resident may obtain a renter's insurance policy through any insurance company, broker, or agent, so long as the
insurance company and policy comply with paragraph 2.. Resident may also purchase a Renter's Policy through the
eRenterPlan. eRenterPlan policies are offered through LeasingDesk Insurance Services, an independent insurance
agency. Pacwest Insurance Services, LLC, an affiliate of Landlord, has a sub-producer relationship with LeasingDesk
Insurance Services, and may benefit financially from Resident's purchase of an eRenterPlan policy by receiving a fee
from LeasingDesk Insurance Services. Pacwest Insurance Services, LLC is neither an agent nor broker of Resident.
To repeat - you are not required to purchase an eRenterPlan policy; you are free to shop around and obtain renter's
insurance from any insurer meeting the requirements of paragraph 2, above.

professional regarding your renter's insurance options.

UTILITIES ADDENDUM
This Utilities Addendum ("Utilities Addendum") dated October 12, 2021 is attached to and made a part of the lease agreement
dated November 18, 2021 (the "Lease") by and between Essex Property Trust, Inc., as agent for Owner ("Landlord"), and
Cynthia Clark, Katheryne Clark, and William Bill Clark (individually and collectively referred to herein as "Resident") for the
rental of the premises located at 258 Palm Valley Boulevard #303, San Jose, CA 95123 (the "Premises" or "Unit") within the
community commonly known as Palma Sorrento (the "Community" or "Property"). All terms not specifically defined herein
shall have the same definition as found in the Lease. Resident and Landlord agree as follows:
1. General: Residents monthly rent under the Lease does not include charges for any utilities. Resident is responsible for the
costs of all utilities identified on Exhibit A to this Utilities Addendum. Residents may be charged for utilities in two ways:
Direct-Bill Utilities and Allocated Utilities.
2. Direct-Bill Utilities: For the "Direct-Bill Utilities" identified on Exhibit A, Resident is required to set up service with the
utility provider and be billed directly from the utility provider as the Customer of Record. Service must be established as of
the Lease start date in Resident's name by contracting directly with the utility provider and failure to do so may result in an
interruption of services and is considered a material breach of the Lease. Landlord and Resident agree that if Resident
fails to establish service in Resident's own name, Landlord or Billing Provider will incur certain costs (e.g., additional
bookkeeping, administrative time, and lost opportunity costs) that will be difficult or impossible to ascertain. Landlord and
Resident agree that the amount set forth in Exhibit A is a fair estimate of the damages Landlord will suffer as a result of
Resident's failure. Resident must terminate Direct Billed Utility service provided in their name when Resident vacates the
Premises.
3. Allocated Utilities
a) The other utilities for which Resident is responsible are referred to herein as "Allocated Utilities." Resident agrees to
pay to Landlord, as additional rent, all Allocated Utilities during the term of the Lease. For the Allocated Utilities,
Resident shall pay a monthly amount stated in a separate bill ("Allocated Utility Bill") sent to Resident by Landlord or a
third party billing service provider ("Billing Provider") for the Property. Payment of the Allocated Utility Bill is due as
noted on each Allocated Utility Bill. Unless otherwise provided, Resident agrees to pay the Allocated Utility Bill monthly
at the location identified on such Allocated Utility Bill.
b) Resident agrees that Landlord may bill for additional utilities and services, at which time such additional utilities and
services shall for all purposes be included in the term "Allocated Utilities," as well as change the Billing Provider, the
method of billing and/or the method of allocation with thirty (30) days' written notice to Resident.
c) Charges for Allocated Utilities (if any) will itemize the beginning and ending meter readings, the rate charged to
Resident and any other information required by applicable law, rules or regulations. Billing amounts will be determined
by multiplying the sub-meter readings for the Resident's Premises by the effective utility rate that is charged to
Landlord. The effective rate is calculated by adding together all charges from the utility provider, including base fees,
miscellaneous charges, fees and taxes contained on the utility bills divided by the total consumption. Resident agrees
to allow Landlord, or the Billing Provider, access to Resident's Premises in order to install, repair, remove and/or read
sub-meters. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Billing Provider may estimate Resident's sub-meter
consumption of Allocated Utilities if Resident's sub-meter is broken, a meter cannot be read, does not transmit a meter
reading or upon move-in or move-out.
d) Resident's Allocated Utilities may be estimated if Landlord or Billing Provider has not received bills from utility providers
in time to prepare Resident's Allocated Utility Bill.
e) The allocation formulas set forth in Exhibit A will calculate Resident's share of the Allocated Utilities and all costs of
providing same in accordance with state and local law. Under any allocation method, Resident may be paying for utility
usage in common areas or in other residential units as well as administrative fees or other charges imposed by the
utility provider. Both Landlord and Resident agree that using the allocation formula set forth herein as a basis for
allocating utility costs is fair and reasonable, while recognizing that the allocation method does not reflect actual utility
consumption by Resident.
f) For Allocated Utilities, all charges assessed to Landlord from the utility providers or on property tax bills may be used
to calculate the amount charged to Resident under the allocation formula. Such charges may include, but are not
limited to, usage charges, miscellaneous charges, fees, taxes, drought or other surcharges, fines or other penalties.
Allocated charges for Trash may include all costs incurred by Landlord relating to Trash, including, but not limited to
charges from the hauler for removing the trash and recycling, porter service, bulky item removal, cleaning of the bins
and deodorizing services, third party vendor contracts providing services relating to trash and recycling as well as

40
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

composting costs where required.


4. Common Area Deduction ("CAD"): If indicated in Exhibit A, a CAD is deducted from the sum of the Landlord's utility bills
for the utility indicated and relates to the expense of such utility associated with any common areas such as laundry
facilities, irrigation, pools, fountains, etc. Landlord and Resident agree that the exact amount of utilities consumed in the
common areas cannot be determined precisely; therefore, the CAD indicated is a fair and reasonable estimate of the
usage in common areas even though the utilities are not separately metered. Landlord will deduct the percentage of CAD
identified in Exhibit A from the sum of the Landlord's utility bills for the utility indicated each month before allocation of such
bills to Resident according to the allocation formulas described. The percentage CAD deduction may be changed by
Landlord with thirty (30) days' written notice by Landlord to Resident.
5. Default in Payment of Allocated Utility Bills
a) To the extent permitted by law, any delinquent payment of an Allocated Utility Bill shall be considered a default under
the Lease to the same extent and remedies as if Resident had been delinquent in Resident's payment of the monthly
rent.
b) Landlord and Resident agree that when Resident fails to pay Allocated Utility Bills on time, Landlord may apply monthly
rent to the overdue Utility Bill. If Resident fails to pay Allocated Utility Bills on time, or when Resident pays by a
dishonored check, the actual cost to Landlord and/or Billing Provider is difficult or impossible to ascertain, but Landlord
and Resident agree that Landlord and/or Billing Provider does, in the event of late payment or in the event of a
dishonored check, incur certain costs, such as additional bookkeeping and administrative time, bank charges, lost
opportunity costs of the late payment, etc. After making a reasonable endeavor to estimate accurately the approximate
costs associated with a non-payment of the Allocated Utility Bill, Landlord and Resident agree that the amount set forth
in Exhibit A is a fair estimate of the damages Landlord will suffer as a result of the late payment. The parties further
agree that an NSF fee of $25.00, plus the payment required to replace the dishonored check, is a fair and reasonable
amount to compensate Landlord in the event Resident's check is dishonored. The Parties further agree that the
payment of these sums does not constitute an agreement to pay Allocated Utility Bills late and/or to pay by dishonored
check.
6. Upon vacating the Premises, a final Allocated Utility Bill will be issued by either the Billing Provider or Landlord. The cut-off
date for this final bill will be the date that Resident surrenders possession of the Premises to Landlord. To the extent
permitted by law, Resident acknowledges and agrees that any unpaid Allocated Utility Bill, together with the amount of the
final bill, may be deducted from the security deposit, as additional rent, at the termination of the Lease.
7. Landlord is not liable for any losses or damages Resident incurs as the result of outages, interruptions, or fluctuations in
utilities provided to the Premises and waives any claims against Landlord for offset, reduction of rent or diminished rental
value of the Premises, except if the direct result of the sole negligence of Landlord.
8. Resident agrees not to terminate, cut off, interrupt or interfere with any system supplying utility services to the Premises
and shall not disturb, tamper, adjust, or disconnect any utility service sub-metering device. Resident shall not intentionally
utilize utilities of another unit whether or not such unit is occupied. Resident shall not breach any cable or satellite dish
system, but will instead contract with appropriate parties for use of such services.
9. Resident agrees to comply with any utility conservation efforts implemented by Landlord and abide by all applicable laws
and ordinances pertaining to utilities. Resident further agrees to reimburse and indemnify Landlord for all fines or other
penalties incurred by Landlord as a result of Resident's violation of any statute, ordinance, regulation or other
governmental restriction.
10. Landlord may modify the method by which utilities are furnished to Resident's unit and/or billed to Resident during the term
of the Lease. This includes, but is not limited to, sub-metering the unit for certain utility services and/or changing the
allocation formula. Such changes may also include changing the CAD percentage and/or changing flat-rate amounts. In
the event Landlord chooses to modify the method or allocation formula used to calculate charges for utility services,
Landlord will provide Resident at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice of such modification.
11. Any provision specifically required by applicable law which is not included in this Utilities Addendum is hereby inserted as
an additional provision of this Utilities Addendum, but only to the extent required by applicable law and then only so long as
the provision of the applicable law is not repealed or held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction.
12. If any provision of this Utilities Addendum or the Lease is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, such provision
shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability only without invalidating or otherwise affecting the
remainder of this addendum or the Lease. Except as specifically stated herein, all other terms and conditions of the Lease
shall remain unchanged. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Utilities Addendum and the terms of the

2. Resident's billing statement will include a monthly service charge of no more than $2.98. The service charge represents
the reasonable value of services provided by Landlord and/or the Billing Provider to allocate the utility costs, provide billing
to Resident, process payments and, where applicable, postage costs. The monthly service charge is subject to change
upon thirty (30) days' written notice. In any jurisdiction where such charges are prohibited for one or more specific utility,
the monthly service charge does not include any costs for preparing bills or other services relative to those specific utilities.
3. As set forth in this Utilities Addendum, a late fee of $0.00 may be imposed anytime Resident fails to pay an Allocated Utility
Bill by the due date set forth in the Allocated Utility Bill.
4. As set forth in this Utilities Addendum, a fee of $35.00 may be imposed each month (or part thereof) that a Resident fails to
put a Direct Bill Utility into Resident's own name.
5. While Landlord reserves the right to change who prepares Allocated Utility Bills at the Property, at the time of execution of
this Utilities Addendum, Allocated Utility Bills are provided to Resident by:
A Third Party Billing Provider, which, as of the execution of this Utilities Addendum is RealPage Utility Management.
The Third Party Billing Provider may be contacted with any questions or concerns regarding their billing any time

Explanation of Terms and Formulas


1. "50/50" means the charges to Resident are allocated based on 50% occupancy (number of residents in the Premises as a
percentage of all the residents at the Property at a given point in time, usually monthly) and 50% of the square footage of
the Premises as a percentage of all occupied square footage at the Property.
a. To determine the occupancy portion of the allocation, Billing Provider or Landlord will divide the charges being
allocated in half after applying the CAD and then divide the result by the total occupant usage factor. Billing Provider
will calculate Resident's share by multiplying the result of this calculation by the occupancy factor based upon the
total number of authorized occupants in Resident's Premises. Because two people do not use twice as much of a
utility as one person due to shared usage, the following occupancy factor is used to reflect an estimate of
consumption. The occupancy factor is determined by the following:

Number of Occupants Occupancy Factor


1 1.0
2 1.6
3 2.2
4 2.6
5 3.0
6 3.4

b. To determine the square footage portion of the allocation, Billing Provider will take the remaining charges to be
allocated and divide it by the total occupied square feet and then multiply the result of this calculation by the
estimated square footage of Resident's Premises.
c. The amounts resulting from the above-calculations are added together to determine Resident's allocated share of the
utility charges and will be reflected on Resident's Allocated Utility Bill.
2. "100% Occupancy" allocation means, after deducting the CAD, Billing Provider divides the charges being allocated by the
total occupant usage factor of the authorized occupants at the Property. Billing Provider calculates Resident's share by
multiplying the result of this calculation by the occupancy factor based upon the total number of authorized occupants in
the Premises.
3. "100% Square Footage" allocation means, after deducting the CAD, Billing Provider divides the charges being allocated by
the total square feet of all occupied square footage. Billing Provider will then multiply the result of this calculation by the
estimated square footage of Resident's Premises.
4. "By Unit" means the total charges being allocated, after deducting the CAD is divided by the total number of units at the
Property and the result is Resident's allocation.
5. "Not to Exceed Amount." If the Property is in a rent-controlled jurisdiction, Landlord and Resident understand and
acknowledge that, for purposes of the applicable rent control ordinance, all utilities charges required to be paid by Resident
under the Utilities Addendum are considered a portion of the rent paid for the Premises and shall be considered as part of
the rent when calculating allowable increases under the rent control ordinance. The maximum utility rent to be billed to
Resident by or on behalf of Landlord (as opposed to any Direct-Bill Utilities) shall be the amount calculated by adding
together all of the "not to exceed" amounts for utilities for which Residents are responsible according to the above table as
well as any monthly billing or service fees required under the Utility Addendum, if applicable. The rent related to these
utilities and services actually billed to Resident may be less than the "not to exceed" amounts in order to reward overall
conservation efforts and to pass on to Resident decreases in rates from the utility providers.
6. "Flat Rate" charges are set by Landlord and may or may not be based on a specific formula.
7. For sewer charges when the "Water Usage" box is checked, allocation is based upon the sub-metered usage of water.
Resident's share of the sewer utility charges to Landlord shall be calculated by taking the amount of sub-metered water
usage and multiplying it by the effective rate for sewer charged by the utility provider. For additional information regarding
sub-meter calculations, please refer back to the Utility Addendum paragraph related to charges for allocated utilities based
on sub-meter readings.
8. "Hot Water Energy" means energy used in a central water heating system at the Property to heat water which is then
supplied to the Resident's premises for hot water and/or heat.

We can assist with lockouts and admit any authorized occupant with appropriate identification into the Unit during office hours.
Unfortunately, we are not able to provide after-hours lockout services at all of our communities. Please see the Access Cards,
Keys, Remotes, Directories and Lockout Policy Addendum for guidelines at your specific community.
Pest Control
Our pest control company treats the community on a regular basis. If you require additional pest control assistance, contact
the Community Office. We will be happy to help you get rid of any unwanted insect or pests.
Building Exterior and Grounds
We try to keep the grounds and public areas clean, neat and attractive for everyone to enjoy. Help us stay beautiful:
• Please do not leave personal belongings in the common areas. When we come across something that's been left out all
night, we have to assume it is trash and dispose of it properly.
• Please make sure your garbage goes straight from your Unit to the community garbage bins, and to clear personal
belongings from outside your front door.
• Please show respect for landscaped areas, shrubbery and trees. We work hard to keep the grounds looking great, and
appreciate your help in keeping them that way.
• Please keep your holiday decorations tasteful and remove them no more than a week after the holiday, local parade or
festival.
• All shopping carts should remain at the store. They are not to be brought to the Community.
• The design of our Community depends on a clean, uncluttered look to our windows. As a result, please don't place foil,
stickers, decals, posters, tinfoil, colored blinds or any other window treatments in window areas.
• No alterations or attachments of any kind are to be placed on or affixed to any portion of the exterior of the building. Any
objects that may deface the building are not permitted. Do not make holes in doors, exterior walls, windows or railings.
Patios and Balconies
Nothing should be placed on balcony railings and, for your safety, please limit the people and belongings on your balcony. A
safe guideline is no more than 40 pounds per square foot. While balcony sizes vary, the maximum occupancy for a 4' x 8'
balcony is 6 people, plus some standard patio furniture.
An attractive community can't exist without your cooperation, especially when it comes to maintaining good-looking patios and
balconies. Bicycles, approved outdoor furniture and well-kept potted plants (subject to size limitations) are the only items
permitted on patios and balconies (subject to management discretion). Leaving items outside is at your own risk; we
encourage you to use appropriate storage facilities where available. Please keep your patio (including walls and railings) free
of flags, garbage containers, boxes, appliances, indoor furniture, exercise equipment, debris, awnings, gazebos, bamboo or
other privacy screens and tents.
If you have a private patio or balcony enclosed by a fence, railing, or other structure then you can use those private areas to
dry laundry so long as you comply with the following:
• No more than two drying lines or racks may be in use at any one time.
• Items may not be left on the drying lines or racks for more than 24 hours (i.e., all items must be removed within 24 hours of
being put out on the drying lines or racks).
• Drying lines or racks must be free standing. That means they may not be: A. attached or affixed in any manner to and

the unit, create a health or safety hazard, or interfere with walkways or utility service equipment. D. Cannot interfere with
the maintenance of the property.
• Clothes may not be draped over fence or balcony railings, or hung from any building fixtures.
If you want to install plants, shades or furniture, please check with your Community Manager first. He or she can help make
sure your choices fit within your Community's guidelines and general appearance.
You must use due care when cleaning not to cause water or debris to flow onto your neighbor's patio or balcony below.
Satellite Dish/Antenna
We will allow you to install one (1) satellite dish or antenna (collectively referred to below as a satellite dish) for personal,
private use in the Unit under the following conditions:
• The satellite dish must be three (3) feet or less in diameter.
• The satellite dish may only be installed on the inside balcony, patio or terrace that is under your exclusive control. The
satellite dish, or any part of it, cannot extend beyond the balcony, patio or terrace railing. Allowable locations may not
provide an optimal signal, or any signal. We can't promise that the Unit will provide a suitable location for receiving a
satellite signal.

common areas of the Community, including, but not limited to, exterior walls, roofs, window sills, common balconies or
stairways.
• You can't install the satellite dish in a manner that causes physical or structural damage to the Unit, excluding ordinary
wear and tear, including, but not limited to, holes drilled through exterior walls.
• You must install, maintain and remove said satellite dish in a manner which is consistent with industry standards.
• You must indemnify, protect and defend us against, and hold us harmless from, all claims, losses, damages, costs and
expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, expenses and court costs relating to any personal injury
or Community damage arising from the installation, operation, maintenance and/or removal of said satellite dish.
• If requested, you must provide the Community Office with a copy of any liability insurance coverage maintained by
Resident for said satellite dish. Landlord reserves the right to require that such insurance shall name Landlord as an
"additional insured."
Personal Barbecue Grills
Due to locally enforced regulations from the International Fire Code, charcoal and propane barbecues as well as all other
open-flame cooking devices cannot be operated on combustible balconies or within 10 feet of combustible buildings.
Accordingly, Residents are not permitted to use any barbecue on the balcony. Storage of these devices within your home,
storage facility, garage or balcony is also prohibited. The only exception permissible is if the cooking device is an electric grill
or utilizes liquefied-petroleum (including propane) and the gas container has a water capacity no larger than 2.5 pounds
[nominal 1 pound (0.454kg) LP-gas capacity]. These accepted cooking devices have very small containers like the ones used
for camping stoves.
Portable Generators
Residents are not permitted to use portable generators in the home or on patios or balconies. Storage of these devices within
your home, storage facility, garage or balcony is also prohibited.
Political Signs
A "political sign" is one that relates to any of the following: an election or legislative vote, including an election of a candidate to
public office; the initiative, referendum or recall process; and issues that are before a public commission, public board or
elected local body for a vote.
You may only post political signs in the window or door of your Unit if you comply with the following:
• The signs may not be more than 6 square feet in size; or posted or displayed in violation of any local, state or federal law.
• You may not install or allow a political sign to be installed that causes any damage to or alteration of the Unit such as
drilling holes; nailing into outside walls, door frames, window sills, railings, etc.; or affixing tape or other sticky material in a
way that will cause damage to paint or other finishes.

• Resident may post and shall remove any political signs in compliance with the time limits set by the ordinance for the
jurisdiction where the Unit is located. Resident shall be solely responsible for any violation of any local ordinance. If no
local ordinance exists or if the local ordinance does not include a time limit for posting and removing political signs on
private property, political signs may not be posted more than ninety (90) days prior to the date of the election or vote to
which the sign relates and must be removed ten (10) days following the date of the election or vote.
• Resident is strictly liable for any damages or injury that results from such installation and for the cost of repairs or
repainting that may be reasonably necessary to restore the leased Unit to its condition prior to the posting of the political
sign(s).

Be a Good Neighbor
Alcohol intoxication, disorderly conduct and excessive noise are not allowed in the Community. Anyone consuming alcohol at
our Community must be at least 21 years old and in the privacy of your Unit. Alcohol is allowed in common areas only when
permitted or approved by the Community Office.
Disturbances and Noises
Noise can be a nuisance and we ask all of our residents to be considerate of their neighbors when entertaining, using their
television or stereo, or using appliances or vacuum cleaners late at night. If you live in an upstairs Unit, avoid running, jumping
or slamming doors. Please observe the quiet hours of your community, which are generally 10pm-7am, but may vary from
community to community.
If you believe your neighbor is causing a disturbance or not observing the quiet hours, try politely talking to them before
contacting the Community Office. They probably don't realize they were bothering anyone. If their response is not satisfactory,
call the Community Office or our courtesy patrol. And if your neighbors come to you with a concern about noise coming from
your Unit, please try your best to accommodate them.
Garbage Removal
Trash is regularly removed from our garbage receptacles. Please make sure you are putting your garbage in one of them. If
the receptacle nearest you is full, please take your garbage to another one. Garbage bags left on the ground are a genuine
health hazard and can attract unwanted pests. If you regularly have trouble finding an empty garbage receptacle, report the
problem to the Community Office. Also, for your safety, once garbage is placed in a trash receptacle, please don't attempt to
remove it.
• Trash must be disposed of properly, preferably in tightly tied plastic bags or closed containers. Please use a plastic bag or
trash liner to carry refuse to the dumpster or trash chutes, where provided. This prevents waste from dripping on carpet or
concrete and preserves the appearance and cleanliness of your home.
• Place all household refuse inside proper refuse containers, and do not place any items outside or around the containers.
All boxes placed in these containers must be broken down, allowing for maximum usage of this service.
• Don't be a litterbug. Make sure that papers, gum, candy wrappers or any other trash is placed in appropriate receptacles.
• If we are required to repeatedly clean up excessive trash around your Unit, we may charge you for the time spent doing so.
• Do not empty ashtrays into the parking lot or dispose of other items from vehicles by leaving them in the parking area.
• Do not put furniture or other large items in the trash. Please make other arrangements for disposing of such items. You
may be responsible for extra pickup charges due to inappropriate items in the dumpsters or dumpster area.
• If your Community has garbage chutes, use moisture-proof bags to carry waste to the trash drops on each floor to prevent
stains on the carpeting. All garbage should be deposited directly into the garbage chutes and must be completely
contained in sealed bags. We are not responsible for hauling away non-trash items such as old furniture, etc. If you have
large, oversized disposable items that do not fit in garbage chutes, where provided, please notify us. DO NOT FORCE
LARGE ITEMS INTO THE CHUTE. You will be held responsible for any cleanup costs due to garbage bag leaks,
breakage or any noted garbage trails in the Community.
• Please remember to recycle and compost where available. If you have questions about recycling and/or composting
procedures and opportunities at your Community, please ask the Community Office.
Pets
Your Community Management Team can tell you about any special restrictions, deposits, documentation or agreements
required if you have a pet. We also have a few other basic rules and guidelines.
• If you're considering a new pet and would like more information, please contact your Community Office for details.

Caring for Your Unit, Appliances and Plumbing


Carpet and Vinyl Floor Coverings
We recommend that you vacuum at least once a week. Using plastic trays under plants can prevent water damage and
bleaching, and acting quickly to clean up spills allows you to cope with them before they dry and become set in the carpet.
• Use only approved carpet and vinyl cleaners and agents.
• If you want to have your carpets cleaned, please let us know. We will be happy to schedule a cleaning for you (although it
generally will be at your cost).
Counter Tops
• Do not place hot vessels directly on counter tops – use a trivet or pot holder.
• Cut all food items on a cutting board instead of on the counter, or you may damage the surface.
• For Units with granite countertops, please use non-abrasive and granite-specific cleaners.
Dishwasher
• To prevent the drain from clogging, scrape your dishes before loading.
• Load dishwasher-safe plastic and wooden items in the top rack.
• Also, please only use dishwashing detergent in the dishwasher. Other types of soap will cause excessive bubbles and may
damage the floors, appliances and cabinets. If you have excess bubbles, use laundry softener to stop the bubbling and call
us so we can assist.
• Carefully load dishes to not interfere with the action of the rinsing arm.
Living Conditions
You must keep your Unit clean and uncluttered to allow easy passage throughout. Windows and doors should not be blocked.
Flammable materials may not be stored in the Unit.
We may require the removal of items, newspapers, trash, etc. that are deemed to be a fire or health hazard. Also, you may not
add appliances, such as dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, freezers, etc. to the Unit without prior written consent of the
Community Office.
Garbage Disposal
• The "garbage" disposal, is not for garbage. It's only for certain types of food waste. Nothing large should be placed in it.
• Run cold water before and during disposal operation.
• Occasionally sharpen the blades by running cold water, inserting ice cubes and operating the disposal.
• To deodorize, run cold water and insert orange or lemon peels.
• Please DO NOT use drain-cleaning chemicals. They're really rough on the pipes and the environment.
Please DO NOT dispose of bones, celery, onion peels, cornhusks, corn silks, watermelon seeds, artichoke leaves, coffee
grounds, grease, oil, fat, pasta or rice, all of which will cause clogging and damage the disposal. In addition, don't put metal,
glass, cloth or fish tank rocks down the disposal. It damages the blades. Also, take care not to drop silverware into the
disposal.
• If the disposal will not operate when the switch is in the "On" position, turn the disposal off and locate and depress the red
"Reset" button on the underside of the disposal unit. If the disposal still does not operate, contact the Community Office for
help.
Refrigerator
Clean the interior and exterior of your refrigerator with a mild cleaning solution of baking soda and warm water. Avoid using
any abrasive cleansers, gritty soaps and heavy-duty cleaning agents.
Sinks/Drains
Keep your drains clear by not disposing any of the following in them:
• Grease: Collect it in a container and put in the garbage.
• Paper towels/rags: Discard these in the garbage. Do not flush down the toilet.

51
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

• Excessive toilet paper: Using large amounts of toilet paper does not give it time to dissolve, resulting in overflows.
• Excess hair: Remove hair from sink or tub; do not rinse down the drain.
Microwaves
Do not put anything metal in microwaves. This includes spoons, pots and pans with metal trim, recycled paper towels which
have trace metals, aluminum foil, metal twist ties, poultry pins, meat thermometers, and Styrofoam plates (which may contain
trace metals).
Washer and Dryer
If you have a washer/dryer, clean the interior and exterior with a mild solution of baking soda and warm water – please don't
use abrasive, gritty or heavy-duty cleansers. For the best performance, empty the dryer lint tray after each load. Also, please
leave your washer open when not in use to allow it to dry out and prevent mildew growth.
Fireplace
If your Unit has a fireplace, follow these basic care and safety precautions:
• Do not use flammable liquids such as gasoline, kerosene or lighter fluid.
• Burn only seasoned wood, cut to the proper length. Use only paper to start fires. Do not burn tires, trash or other items in
your fireplace.
• If you use manufactured fireplace logs, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
• Open your damper before starting a fire; always use an iron fireplace grate and keep the fireplace screen closed until all
embers are cold. It only takes a spark to start real trouble, so please be careful and stay safe.
• Dispose of the ashes when the embers are completely cold. For your safety, wait at least 48 hours for the embers to cool.
If you have a gas fireplace:
• Be sure to keep the glass clean and the vents unobstructed and able to do their job.
• NOT TO PLACE ANYTHING IN THE FIREPLACE. they are natural gas burning and there should be no wood, paper,
gasoline, kerosene or lighter fluid.
If you believe your fireplace is not working properly, please let us know so we can call a technician.
Fire Sprinklers
If there is a fire suppression sprinkler system in the ceiling of your Unit, leave the sprinkler heads alone. They are sensitive
and can be easily broken off. If they are broken off or accidentally triggered, it will cause immediate flooding in your Unit, (and
possibly your neighbor's) and you will be responsible for the cost of cleaning it up.
If a sprinkler head is broken, immediately submit an emergency maintenance service request and call the fire department to
report the breakage and minimize damages due to flooding.
Tips for Preventing Mold & Mildew
As part of your Lease, you signed a Mold Addendum. That document controls our respective legal obligations, and we wanted
to provide you with some additional tips for preventing organic growth within your Unit. You can help minimize organic growth
by taking the following precautions:
• Open windows frequently when the weather is dry to allow an exchange of air and permit the introduction of sunlight
throughout your Unit. Even in winter, cracking your windows after showers or cooking can help mitigate excessive moisture
from getting trapped inside. It may help if you run the fan on your furnace to circulate fresh air through your Unit during
these times.
• In damp or rainy weather conditions, keep windows and doors closed.
• If possible, maintain a temperature of between 55° and 75° Fahrenheit within your Unit at all times.
• Regular cleaning (including dusting, vacuuming, mopping and use of environmentally safe household cleaners) is
important to remove household dirt and debris that mold feeds on. Thoroughly dry any spills on carpeting.
• Periodically clean and dry the walls and floors around the sink, bathtub, shower, toilets, windows and patio doors using a
common household disinfecting cleaner.
• Regularly, wipe down and dry areas where moisture sometimes accumulates, like countertops, windows and windowsills.

KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM

• Use any preinstalled bathroom fan when bathing or showering and allow the fan to run until all excess moisture has vented
from the bathroom.
• Use the exhaust fans in your kitchen when cooking or while the dishwasher is running, and allow the fan to run until all
excess moisture has vented from the kitchen.
• Limit houseplants to keep the moisture level in your Unit at a minimum.
• Ensure that your clothes dryer vent is properly connected and clean the lint screen after every use.
• When washing clothes in warm or hot water, make sure condensation does not build up within the washer and dryer
closet; if condensation does accumulate, dry with a fan or towel.
• If you live in a humid climate, a small dehumidifier will help regulate humidity levels in your Unit and create a more
comfortable environment.
• Do not overfill closets or storage areas.
• Do not allow damp or moist stack of clothes or other cloth or paper materials to lie in piles for an extended period of time.
• Let us know immediately if you spot any of the following:
• Evidence of a water leak or excessive moisture in your Unit, storage room, garage, or any common area.
• Evidence of mold or mildew-like growth that cannot be removed by simply applying a common household cleaner and
wiping the area.
• Mold or mildew that reappears despite regular cleaning.
• A failure or malfunction with your heating, ventilation or air-conditioning system. Do not close or cover any of the
heating, ventilation or air-conditioning ducts in your Unit.
• Inoperable windows or doors.

Community Recreational Amenities


We offer a wide variety of recreational amenities at our Communities. Below are general policies with respect to these
amenities. Some of the following may not apply to your Community, so only read those sections that relate to the amenities
available at your Community. If you are not sure what those are, please contact the Community Office.
Amenities may change during your time with us, and, at any time, we may need to change our Policies and House Rules. This
means we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, without prior notice, to change the hours of such facilities or to discontinue
the Resident's use of all such facilities. Any such changes or termination of such facilities shall in no way serve to lessen the
Resident's obligation under the rental agreement or lease, including the amount of the monthly rent, nor will this serve as a
basis for a Resident's early termination of a lease.
Use of all recreational amenities are at your own risk. Please make sure you know and understand how to operate all
equipment before using it. If you do not feel comfortable with how to operate something, please look it up. Also, be courteous
of your neighbors. If someone is waiting, please limit use to 30 minutes, this applies to all recreational amenities. And while we
generally allow each household to bring two guests into our various community recreational areas, we may limit guest access
at any time to ensure the facilities are available to our residents. Please be advised that our recreational amenities are not

required to be registered at the Community Office prior to their use of the facilities and sign a waiver.
Hours of operation are posted at the facility and/or the Community Office.

Swimming Pools/Spas
Some of our communities offer a pool, spa or hot tub for your enjoyment. Pool hours are posted at the Community. Please be
advised that the pool may be closed occasionally for your safety, due to severe weather or chemical treatments beyond those

• We are not responsible for accidents in the pool or pool area. Please become familiar with the location of the emergency
phone and safety equipment.
Additional Cautions Regarding Spas
For your own protection, we suggest you observe a 10-minute time limit when in the spa. Anyone pregnant or who has a
medical condition should check with their doctor before using any outdoor spa.
We need to be very clear that you should not, under any circumstances, put soap in the spa. It can clog the filters and make
the spa unusable for several days, and violators will end up paying the repair bill.
Please familiarize yourself with the location of the emergency shut-off button, in case an emergency occurs.
Laundry Rooms
Laundry rooms are common areas, so please be advised that we aren't responsible for damages or loss of clothing and
personal items from the laundry rooms.
Some laundry room guidelines:
• Don't sit or stand on the worktable(s). They are designed for laundry folding and sorting.
• Don't overload the machines – they won't work well, and could break down.
• Please make sure to empty your pockets before washing your clothes.
• Promptly remove clothes at the end of the cycle. Otherwise, someone else may do it for you and your Spiderman
underwear will be the talk of the community.
• When a machine isn't working, please call the phone number listed on the laundry room wall and inform the representative
of the machine number. Please notify the Community Office if the problem persists.
Community Barbecue Grills
Some Communities have common area grills for your use and enjoyment. If you use these facilities, please clean up after
yourself. Some communities require the barbecues to be reserved, especially those that require a propane tank – please
check with the Community Office.
Exercise extreme caution disposing of coals, and don't dispose of them in landscaped areas. Instead, wait 24 hours for the
coals to completely cool and then put them in a garbage receptacle.
Community Fire Pits
Some communities also have common area fire pits to enjoy and in addition to the above BBQ guidelines here are a couple
safety tips for open flame gas fire pits:
• Don’t attempt to lift and/or move the fire pit.
• Don’t place any objects near the base of the fire pit as they may obstruct gas flow and ventilation
• Don’t use or store gasoline or other flammable vapor or liquids in the vicinity of the fire pit including empty gas cartridges,
lighters, etc.
• If you have reason to believe there is a gas leak, please contact 911 and the management team immediately.
Play Areas
• Residents of all ages are prohibited from playing on stairs, in trash receptacle areas, and laundry rooms or in any
potentially dangerous area.
• Please do not mark, write, or paint on buildings, walls, sidewalks or landscaped areas.
• Adults are responsible for the behavior of children.
• Finally, but most importantly, all residents should use caution when driving throughout the Community. Watch
closely for younger residents and their guests at play.
Tennis, Basketball, Racquetball and Other Sport Courts
At Communities where these courts are available, the hours of operation are posted. These rules apply to all courts.

Parking
Parking availability varies from community to community; however, the following applies to all of our Communities. For
additional information regarding parking, please review applicable addenda to your lease. It is really important you read and
follow the parking addendum or else your car could be towed at your cost, especially if a parking permit needs to be displayed
and you fail to do so.
• We need to keep things safe, so no double parking, parking in red curb areas or blocking of pedestrian ramps or
dumpsters. Generally, tandem parking is the exception, not the rule, and is only permissible at those Communities where it
is specifically authorized. Please check with the Community Office and follow signs with respect to parking at your
Community.
• Handicapped spaces are not assigned to specific Residents, and are available to vehicles bearing handicapped
identification. The Police Department will assess steep fines for vehicles violating laws relating to dedicated handicapped
spaces.
• Obey all parking signs, speed limits, directional instructions or other posted instructions. Any person driving or moving a
vehicle on the premises must hold a current, valid driver’s license.
• Residents are responsible for any vehicles belonging to guests, employees or invitees. We make no guarantees as to the
availability of unassigned or visitor parking.
• We are not responsible for any damage, vandalism or loss that occurs on the grounds. All parking is at the driver’s own
risk.
• The speed limit at the Community is 5 miles per hour.
• Car washing and performing vehicle maintenance is not permitted on the Community or with Community utilities unless a
designated car washing area is provided.
• No motorized vehicle will be operated on sidewalks, walkways or any pedestrian area (unless, of course it is an assistance
device for someone with mobility impairment).

• 2) The vehicle remains in the same parking space for more than two (2) weeks, or;
• 3) The physical condition of the automobile would render it inoperable (e.g. multiple flat tires, etc.).
• Vehicles that do not have current parking authorization will be determined to be not owned by a current Resident.
• Parking violations may be dealt with by towing, loss of parking privileges on the Community or possibly eviction, at our
discretion.
Campers, trailers, trucks, boats and recreational vehicles are prohibited without prior written authorization. Don't park them in
areas reserved for cars.
Garages
If garages are available at your Community, you may inquire at the Community Office about leasing one. Additional rent is
often required to lease a garage, and there's a security deposit for a garage door opener (the security deposit is refunded upon
return of the garage door opener).
Additional monthly rent and security deposits do not limit your liability for property damages, cleaning replacements, or
personal injury.
If you use a garage, here are some basic guidelines and rules:
• Garages are for vehicle parking only. Storing of personal items other than vehicles, or any flammable liquids in your
garage is prohibited.
Electronic Vehicle Charging Stations
At some Communities we have electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) available for use by our Residents. You may only
park in the space designated for using the EVCS while actually charging your vehicle (your electric vehicle). If you are parking
there when not charging your car, you may be towed (and the expense for towing is on you). You also need to pay for the use
of the EVCS. Only charge your vehicles at charging stations where available.
Use of the EVCS is subject to Community rules, regulations, posted signage and other instructions made available to you by
us.
The EVCS is provided to Resident in its "AS-IS," "WHERE-IS" and "WITH ALL DEFECTS" condition. We expressly disclaim all
warranties or representations of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of
merchantability, suitability and fitness for a particular purpose. Landlord makes no warranties or representations that the EVCS
will act in any particular way, meet any requirements or expectations or that the use of the EVCS will be uninterrupted, timely,
secure or error-free.
To the greatest extent allowed by law, by using an EVCS, you assume all risk of harm, release and waive all claims against us
from and against all claims relating to the EVCS by you whether the use is authorized or unauthorized, even if caused by the
negligence of us.
Pursuant to California Civil Code §1947.6 we will approve written requests of Residents to install, at your cost, an EVCS at a
parking space allotted to you under certain circumstances. If you'd like to know more, please contact the Community Office.
Bicycles
Please store bicycles inside your Unit, enclosed patio, balcony storage areas, or bicycle storage area if provided. Do not store
bicycles under stairways. We are not responsible for lost or stolen bicycles.
If a Bike Room is available at your Community, use of the Bike room is at your own risk. We are not responsible for lost or
stolen bicycles stored here either. It is your responsibility to secure bikes with your own lock. Also, do not let anyone else into
the bike room, and make sure the door is secured upon leaving.
For your safety, wear a bicycle helmet. Bicyclists should always yield to pedestrians.

Safety Guidance
Your personal security, and that of your family and guests, is up to you. Regularly taking common-sense precautions can help
you develop the awareness you need to protect yourself, your family and friends, as well as your personal property. We
encourage you to consistently follow the guidelines listed below.
When you are at home:
• Lock your doors and windows.
• Use your deadbolt or night latch.

57
KW October 12, 2021, 10:21 AM
Palma Sorrento

• Never answer your door unless you know who is there. Use the peephole or window to confirm who is on the other side.
• If you are worried because you have lost a key, contact the Community Office to have the locks changed. While there is a
charge to change the lock, it's better to be safe than sorry.
• Keep emergency telephone numbers (police, fire and emergency medical) near the telephone.
• If you have broken locks, latches, doors, windows or smoke detectors, contact the Community Office immediately with a
repair request.
• Let the Community Office and trusted neighbors know if you are going to be gone for an extended period of time. While
neither can assume responsibility if a problem occurs, their increased awareness may play a role in prevention.
When you are away from your Unit:
• Lock your doors and remember to use the deadbolts.
• Immediately report malfunctioning gate locks, or dark stairwells and parking areas.
• Close and lock your windows and sliding patio or balcony doors.
• Don't hide your front door key under the doormat.
• If you have an entry code, don't give it to anyone.
When you are driving and parking your car:
• Lock your car doors and never leave your parked car until the doors are locked and the windows are completely rolled up.
• Don't leave garage remotes, gate fobs or your keys in the car.
• Don't leave valuables in your car.
• Check the back seat before you get into the car.
Access Gates
Some Communities are furnished with electronically controlled access gates.
Access gates are designed to open with an access gate card or remote control device. The Community Office will provide you
with a card or remote, and will demonstrate how to use it to open the access gate. If you lose an access device, you will need
to pay the cost to replace it.
Do NOT try to follow someone else through the gate. The gates are timed for one vehicle only and the gate may close on you
or your vehicle if you try follow the car in front of you. Trust us: Waiting the few extra seconds to open the gate with your own
access device takes a lot less time (and money) than repairing your car after a gate closes on it. Although the access gates
contribute to the peace of mind of our residents, they are not security and, the presence of the gates does not guarantee that
crime can or will be prevented. In particular, please be aware that non-residents may attempt entry by closely following a
resident who is entering the Community. In addition to allowing unauthorized visitors entry to the Community, this practice can
damage the trailing vehicle and compromise the function of the access gate.
Because We Care, Please Remember...
A fail-safe system or device just doesn't exist. Safety devices such as alarm systems, courtesy patrols, patrol cars, and access
gates are not guarantees against crime. All systems are subject to personnel absenteeism, human error, mechanical
malfunctions and tampering.
In the end, your safety is your business, and we urge you to plan and take action as if safety systems and devices didn't exist.
Don't depend on outside systems for security – the best safety measures you can take are the common-sense ones you carry
out yourself.

Leaving Us?
If your needs change and you need to relocate, please let us help you find another Community. We have quite a lot of options
and will make it easy for you. Speaking of easy, here are some guidelines for you to make the process of leaving your current
Community as easy as possible.
Let Us Know
As stated in your lease, you need to let us know, in writing, at least 30 days in advance of your anticipated departure date.

Preparing for Your Move-Out


We want your last few days with us to be as smooth as possible. We ask that you return your Unit to us at the same level of
cleanliness as it was when you moved in. That said, here are some helpful tips;
• Cleaning includes flooring, too! It was new or freshly steam-cleaned when you moved in so make sure to give it a good
vacuum and wipe-down. If you don't want to hassle with scheduling a company to steam-clean your carpets before you
move out, check with the Community Office for pricing of a professional carpet clean. We can simply deduct this amount
from your deposit (or send you a bill) for this as well.
Take a look at our cleaning checklist to make sure you have everything covered.
• Your Community Office can provide pricing for a professional cleaner which can be deducted from your security deposit or
billed to you upon move out.
• Remember to let the post office know you're moving. Visit www.usps.com for more details.
• Although you have told us you are moving, it is not official until you return all keys to us. You can return your keys to the
Community Office during business hours or after business hours at properties offering after-hours drop box. Please place
them in an envelope labeled with your name and unit number.
Cleaning and Repairs
The following are our internal guidelines and estimates regarding the costs for cleaning and any necessary repairs. We will
evaluate each Unit on a case-by-case basis, but this will give you some idea of what to expect if you are not able to return the
Unit to us in the same condition you received it (reasonable wear and tear excepted, of course).
If, prior to moving out, you're unable to clean the Unit to the same level of cleanliness as received and leave it in the condition
presented on move-in (normal wear and tear excepted), or if additional service is required or items missing or damaged to the
point that they must be replaced when you move out, you will be charged for the current cost to repair, clean and/or replace,
including labor and service charges. If your security deposit is insufficient to cover the charges, the amount will be billed to you
directly.
Moving can be stressful and hectic, so we've provided a list of areas you should clean before departing. Although this is not a
complete list, we hope it will help maximize the amount of your returned security deposit.

Tub, showers and toilet: A tub cleaner should work on most dirt, stains and mildew, as well as rings, bottle marks and
soap buildup. A non-abrasive cleanser and scrub brush can tackle heavier dirt. Make sure the shower doors and soap
dishes are clean as well. Both the interior and exterior of your toilet should be clean, with no marks or discoloration.
Countertop, mirror, sinks and faucets: Ensure these surfaces are free of water spots, rings, smears, residue or dirt.

Stove: Clean under the stovetop and drip pans, which you can lift out by pulling on the burner (please make sure the
stove top and oven are cool first). See if the oven door and top are harboring burnt-on food. Check the exhaust fan above
the oven for grease, too.
Microwave: Look under the glass plate for food particles or drips. The interior and door need to be free of stuck-on food,
drips, splatters and discolorations.
Refrigerator and dishwasher: Clean any stains or spills from both the interior and exterior of your dishwasher and
refrigerator. You may need to remove the refrigerator shelves/drawers and clean separately.

Washer/Dryer: Check the interior and detergent/bleach reservoir for any detergent stains. Your dryer may be dusty, so
clean out the interior and lint trap.

Garage, carport, storage closet and patio: Complete sweep and clean. We will need an estimate from our cleaners for any
heavy stains or discoloration.

Walls: Remove all screws and nails, and carefully fill the holes with spackle. You can clean most scuffs with a melamine
sponge. If spot-painting is not sufficient to restore the condition of the walls, we may need to charge you for a full repaint
(prorated based on an amortized period of 36 months).

Floors: All flooring should be free of any spots, stains or fraying not noted on your move-in inspection. Please note that
dirty flooring is not considered normal wear and tear. We do not recommend using your own carpet cleaning machine,
which can cause damage by oversaturating the carpet and leaving detergent residue behind. An ideal option is to contact
us and arrange a carpet clean with our contracted carpet cleaning provider. We'll deduct the fee from your deposit and
save you the hassle.

• Clean any drawers and closets and remove all liners.


• Dust all the ceiling fixtures, including ceiling fans - they can harbor a lot of dirt.
• Clean windows, sills and blinds.
• Clean all door knobs and doors, including your front and patio doors.
• Clean all light switches and outlets.
• Replace any burned out lightbulbs.
• Vacuum the exterior of exhaust fans, air ducts and air returns if they are dusty.
We strongly suggest that you request a pre-move-out inspection and be present for the move-out inspection, which are your
opportunities to review the condition of the Unit and any charges with us.
Cleaning and Repair Estimates
Please keep in mind that these are estimates only and that every case is different. If we do have to assess charges, you will
be charged the actual cost of repairs; the following prices are estimates only. If we incur a higher cost for replacing an item,
you will be responsible for paying the higher cost. Please note that this is not an all-inclusive list, and you may be charged for
the replacement of items not on the list. Unless otherwise indicated, costs are per item.

Carpet and Vinyl Flooring


Carpet and vinyl flooring are expected to last for 5 years. If we determine that it is necessary to repair or replace the carpet or
vinyl flooring at the end of your tenancy, other than to remedy ordinary wear and tear, you will be charged the cost of repair or
replacement. Due to the inability to color match new and existing carpeting and vinyl flooring, it is often necessary to replace
throughout the Unit even if stains or other defective conditions are not present in every room, and you will be responsible for
payment of the cost of the entire replacement, less any depreciation.

6 months 90% of cost 30 months 50% of cost 54 months 10% of cost


12 months 80% of cost 36 months 40% of cost 60 months 0% of cost
18 months 70% of cost 42 months 30% of cost
24 months 60% of cost 48 months 20% of cost

Pet Damage
If we detect possible pet urine in your Unit, charges may be incurred for pet urine detection, which typically ranges from
$50-$100 per Unit as well as subfloor sealing, which typically ranges from $50 to $350 depending on the size of the Unit and
the areas to be sealed.
Paint
Paint is expected to last for 36 months. If we determine it is reasonably necessary to paint all or part of the rental premises at
the end of your tenancy, other than to remedy ordinary wear and tear, you will be charged the cost, based upon your length of
residency prorated over 36 months.
