If you are a prospective seller or landlord (owner) or a prospective buyer or tenant (buyer), you should know that the broker who lists the property for sale  or lease is the owner’s agent. A broker who acts as a subagent represents the owner in cooperation with the listing broker. A broker who acts as a buyer’s agent represents the buyer. A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the parties consent in writing. A broker can assist you in locating a property, preparing a contract or lease, or obtaining financing without representing you. A broker is obligated by  law to treat you honestly. IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE OWNER: The broker becomes the owner’s agent by entering into an agreement with the owner, usually through a written listing agreement, or by  agreeing to act as a subagent by accepting an offer of sub agency from the listing broker. A subagent may work in a different real estate  office. A listing broker or subagent can assist the buyer but does not represent the buyer and must place the interests of the owner first. The  buyer should not tell the owner’s agent anything the buyer would not want the owner to know because an owner’s agent must disclose to the  owner any material information known to the agent. IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE BUYER: The broker becomes the buyer’s agent by entering into an agreement to represent the buyer, usually through a written buyer representation  agreement. A buyer’s agent can assist the owner but does not represent the owner and must place the interests of the buyer first. The owner should not tell a buyer’s agent anything the owner would not want the buyer to know because a buyer’s agent must disclose to the buyer any  material information known to the agent. IF THE BROKER ACTS AS AN INTERMEDIARY: A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the broker complies with The Texas Real Estate License Act. The broker must  obtain the written consent of each party to the transaction to act as an intermediary. The written consent must state who will pay the broker  and, in conspicuous bold or underlined print, set forth the broker’s obligations as an intermediary.  The broker is required to treat each party  honestly and fairly and to comply with The Texas Real Estate License Act. A broker who acts as an intermediary in a transaction: (1) shall treat all parties honestly; (2) may not disclose that the owner will accept a price less than the asking price unless authorized in writing to do so by the owner; (3) may not disclose that the buyer will pay a price greater than the price submitted in a written offer unless authorized in  writing to do so by the buyer; and (4) may not disclose any confidential information or any information that a party specifically instructs the  broker in writing not to disclose unless authorized in writing to disclose the information or required to do so by The Texas Real Estate License Act or a court order or if the information materially relates to the condition of the property. With the parties’ consent, a broker acting as an intermediary between the parties may appoint a person who is licensed under The Texas Real Estate License Act and associated  with the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions of one party and another person who is licensed under that Act and associated with  the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions of the other party. If you choose to have a broker represent you, you should enter into a written agreement with the broker that clearly establishes the broker’s obligations and your obligations. The agreement should state how and by whom the broker will be paid. You have the right to choose the type of representation,  if any, you wish to receive. Your payment  of a fee to a broker does not necessarily establish that the broker represents you. If you have any questions regarding the duties and  responsibilities of the broker, you should resolve those questions before proceeding. TENANT REPRESENTATION Tenant certifies that  (broker) represents Tenant in the negotiation and/or site selection of commercial space for  lease. Check if none . 11 BPMC.Lease Form.TX.March 2013 Tenant Initials

    	 

    	 

    

TENANT (signature and title) Elizabeth Hernandez  TENANT (print name)  5/27/2016 Date City of Houston Smoking Ordinance  Report Created by Linda Figler Reviewed & Revised by CKC/JKR DocuSign Envelope ID: 5257293A - 0C66 - 43A8 - 8383 - 494EAD469556 DocuSign Envelope ID: C29C8842 - B009 - 4317 - AE1B - 431CB200117A TENANT NOTIFICATION The City of Houston recently passed an amendment to the existing City Smoking Ordinance. In order to comply with the ordinance, the  Landlord is responsible for notifying you, our valued tenant, about what this means for you. Here is a synopsis of what the ordinance  requires. Effective November 26, 2002:  Smoking is not allowed within 25 feet of any building entrance, interior or exterior.  Smoking is not allowed in the building. This includes inside of the individual tenant suites and any of the tenant offices. An exception to the City Ordinance occurs if the following ventilation requirements are met: The “exception area”, or other exempt areas within a building, must have either a) a completely separate ventilation system from the building system, or b) a system that provides an air exchange at least every 15 minutes, and exhausts all exchanged air through ductwork  directly to the exterior of the building. The exhausted air cannot be drawn into any occupied non - smoking area of the building. The  ventilation system must be designed so that the air pressure where smoking is allowed is neutral to any adjacent occupied non - smoking area.  The cost to install any such “exception area” is solely at the tenant’s expense. The amended ordinance also requires that each employer must adopt, implement and maintain a written employee smoking policy. The policy must accommodate the preference of non - smoking employees to work in a smoke free environment. A written copy of the policy must  be provided to your employees within three weeks of the adoption of the policy. A written copy of the policy must be provided to all new  employees at the inception of their employment. The ordinance is enforced by the City of Houston, Department of Health & Human Services Bureau of Occupational Health. Concerns or  complaints should be directed to that office. We anticipate and appreciate your cooperation in complying with the new ordinance. 12 BPMC.Lease Form.TX.March 2013 Tenant Initials

C Tenant  Representation Letter Information about Brokerage Services Before working with a real estate broker, you should know that the duties of a broker depend on whom the broker represents. If you are a prospective seller or landlord (owner) or a prospective buyer or tenant (buyer), you should know that the broker who lists the property for sale or lease is the owner’s agent. A broker who acts as a subagent represents the owner in cooperation with the listing broker. A broker who acts as a buyer’s agent represents the buyer. A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the  parties consent in writing. A broker can assist you in locating a property, preparing a contract or lease, or obtaining financing without  representing you. A broker is obligated by law to treat you honestly. IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE OWNER: The broker becomes the owner’s agent by entering into an agreement with the owner, usually through a written listing agreement, or by agreeing to act as a subagent by accepting an offer of sub agency from the listing broker . A subagent may work in a different real estate office . A listing broker or subagent can assist the buyer but does not represent the buyer and must place the interests of the owner first . The buyer should not tell the owner’s agent anything the buyer would not want the owner to know because an owner’s agent must disclose to the owner any material information known to the agent . IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE BUYER: The broker becomes the buyer’s agent by entering into an agreement to represent the buyer, usually through a written buyer representation agreement. A buyer’s agent can assist the owner but does not represent the owner and must place the interests of the  buyer first. The owner should not tell a buyer’s agent anything the owner would not want the buyer to know because a buyer’s agent  must disclose to the buyer any material information known to the agent. IF THE BROKER ACTS AS AN INTERMEDIARY: A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the broker complies with The Texas Real Estate License Act. The broker  must obtain the written consent of each party to the transaction to act as an intermediary. The written consent must state who will pay  the broker and, in conspicuous bold or underlined print, set forth the broker’s obligations as an intermediary. The broker is required to  treat each party honestly and fairly and to comply with The Texas Real Estate License Act. A broker who acts as an intermediary in a transaction: (1) shall treat all parties honestly; (2) may not disclose that the owner will accept a price less than the asking price unless  authorized in writing to do so by the owner; (3) may not disclose that the buyer will pay a price greater than the price submitted in a written offer unless authorized in writing to do so by the buyer; and (4) may not disclose any confidential information or any  information that a party specifically instructs  the broker in writing  not to disclose unless authorized in writing  to disclose the  information or required to do so by The Texas Real Estate License Act or a court order or if the information materially relates to the condition of the property. With the parties’ consent, a broker acting as an intermediary between the parties may appoint a person who is licensed under The Texas Real Estate License Act and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions of  one party and another person who is licensed under that Act and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out  instructions of the other party. If you choose to have a broker represent you, you should enter into a written agreement with the broker  that clearly establishes the broker’s obligations and your obligations. The agreement should state how and by whom the broker will be  paid. You have the right to choose the type of representation, if any, you wish to receive. Your payment of a fee to a broker does not  necessarily establish that the broker represents you. If you have any questions regarding the duties and responsibilities of the broker,  you should resolve those questions before proceeding.

LEASE TERMS AND  CONDITIONS 1. Definitions. The following terms are commonly used in this Lease: 1. “Residents”  are those listed in “Residents” above who sign  the Lease and are authorized to live in the apartment. 2. “Occupants” are those listed in this Lease who are also autho - rized to live in the apartment, but who do not sign the Lease. 3. “Owner” may be identified by an assumed name and is the  owner only and not property managers or anyone else. 4. “Including” in this Lease means “including but not limited to.” 5. “Community Policies” are the written  apartment rules and  policies, including  property  signage and instructions for  care of our property and amenities, with which you, your  occupants, and your guests must comply. 6. “Rent” is monthly base rent  plus additional monthly  recurring fixed charges. 2. Apartment. You are leasing the apartment listed above for use as a  private residence only. 2.1. Access. In accordance with  our Community Policies, you’ll  receive access information or devices for your apartment and mailbox, and other access devices including: _ G arage  . 2. Measurements. Any dimensions and sizes provided to you  relating to the apartment are only approximations or  estimates; actual  dimensions and sizes may vary. 3. Representations. You agree that  designations or accredi - tations associated with the property are subject  to change. 3. Rent. You must pay your Rent on or before the 1st day of each month (due date) without demand. There are no exceptions regarding the payment of Rent, and you agree not paying Rent on or before the 1st of each month is a material breach of this Lease. 1. Payments.  You will pay your Rent by any method, manner  and place we specify in accordance with our Community  Policies. Cash is not acceptable without our prior written permission. You cannot withhold or offset Rent unless authorized by law. We may, at our option, require at any  time that you pay Rent and other sums due in one single  payment by any method we specify. 2. Application  of Payments. Payment of each sum due is an  independent covenant, which means payments  are due  regardless of our performance. When we receive money,  other than water and wastewater payments subject to  government regulation, we  may apply it  at our option and  without notice first to any of your unpaid obligations, then  to accrued rent. We  may do so regardless of notations on  checks or money orders and regardless of when the  obligations arose. All sums other than Rent and late fees are  due upon our demand. After the due date, we do not have  to accept any payments. 3. Late Fees. If  we don’t receive your monthly base rent in full  when it’s due, you must pay late fees as outlined in Lease Details. 4. Returned Payment Fee. You’ll  pay the fee  listed in Lease  Details for each returned check or rejected electronic  payment,  plus initial and daily late fees if applicable, until  we receive full payment in an acceptable method. 5. Utilities and Services. You’ll pay for all  utilities  and services,  related deposits, and any charges or fees when they are due  and as outlined in this Lease. Television channels that  are  provided may be changed during the Lease term if  the  change applies to all residents. If  your electricity is interrupted,  you must use only battery - operated lighting (no flames). You must not allow any utilities (other than cable or Internet) to be cut off or switched for any reason — including disconnection  for not  paying your bills — until the Lease term or renewal period  ends. If  a utility is individually metered, it  must be connected in your name and you must notify the provider of your move - out date. If you delay getting service turned on in your name  by the Lease’s start date or cause it to be transferred back into  our name before you surrender or abandon the apartment,  you’ll be liable for the charge listed above (not to exceed $50  per billing period), plus the actual or estimated cost of the  utilities used while the utility should have been billed to you.  If  your apartment is individually metered and you change  your retail electric provider,  you must give us written notice.  You must pay all applicable provider fees, including any fees  to change service back into our name after you move out. 6. Lease Changes. Lease changes are only allowed during the  Lease term or renewal period if governed by Par. 10, specified  in Special Provisions in Par. 32,  or by a written addendum or  amendment signed by you and us. At or after the end of the  initial Lease term, Rent increases will become effective with at  least 5 days plus the number of days’ advance notice contained  in Box F on page 1 in writing from us to you. Your new Lease,  which may include increased Rent or Lease changes, will begin  on the date stated in any advance notice we provide (without  needing your signature) unless you give us written move - out notice under Par. 25, which applies only to the end of the current  Lease term or renewal period. 4. Automatic Lease Renewal and Notice of Termination. This  Lease  will automatically renew month - to - month unless either party  gives  written notice of termination or intent to move out as required by Par.  25 and specified on page 1. If the number of days isn’t filled in, no - tice of at least 30 days is required. 5. Security Deposit. The  total security deposit for  all residents is due  on or before the date this Lease is signed. Any animal deposit will be  designated in an animal addendum. Security deposits may not be ap - plied to Rent without our prior written consent. 5.1. Refunds and Deductions. You must give us your advance notice of move out as provided by Par. 25 and forwarding address in writing to receive a written description and itemized list of charges or refund. In accordance with our Community Policies and as allowed by law, we may deduct from your security deposit any amounts due under the Lease. If you move out early or in response to a notice to vacate, you’ll be liable for rekeying charges. Upon receipt  of  your move - out date and forwarding address in writing, the  security deposit will be returned (less lawful  deductions) with an itemized accounting of any deductions, no later than  30 days after surrender or abandonment, unless laws provide  otherwise. Any refund may be by one payment jointly payable  to all  residents and distributed to any one resident we choose,  or distributed equally among all residents. 6. Insurance.  Our insurance doesn’t cover the loss of or damage to your personal property. You will be required to have liability insur - ance as specified in our Community Policies or Lease addenda un - less otherwise prohibited by law. If you have insurance covering the  apartment or your personal belongings at the time you or we suffer  or allege a loss, you agree to require your insurance carrier to waive  any insurance subrogation rights. Even if not required, we urge you to obtain your own insurance for losses due to theft, fire, flood, water,  pipe leaks and similar occurrences. Most renter’s  insurance policies  don’t cover losses due to a flood. 7. Reletting and Early Lease Termination. This Lease may not be ter - minated early except as provided in this Lease. 1. Reletting Charge. You’ll be liable for  a  reletting charge as  listed in Lease Details, (not to exceed 85% of the highest  monthly Rent during the Lease term) if  you: (A) fail to move in,  or fail to give written move - out notice as required in Par. 25; (B) move out without paying Rent in full for the entire Lease  term or renewal period; (C)  move out at our demand because  of your default; or (D) are judicially evicted. The reletting  charge is not a termination,  cancellation  or buyout fee and  does not release you from your obligations under this Lease,  including liability for future or past - due Rent, charges for  damages or other sums due. The reletting charge is a liquidated amount covering only part of our damages — for our time, effort, and expense in  finding and processing a replacement resident. These  damages are uncertain  and hard to ascertain — particularly  those relating to  inconvenience, paperwork,  advertising,  showing apartments, utilities for showing, checking pros - pects, overhead, marketing costs, and locator - service fees.  You agree that the reletting charge is a reasonable estimate  of our damages and that the charge is due whether or not our  reletting attempts succeed. 2. Early Lease Termination Procedures. In addition to  your  termination rights referred to in 7.3 or 8.1 below, if this provision  applies under Lease Details,  you may terminate  the Lease  prior to the end of the Lease term if all of the following occur: (a) as outlined in Lease Details, you give us written  notice of early termination,  pay the early termination fee  and  specify the date by which you’ll move out; (b) you are not in  default at  any time and do not hold over;  and (c) you repay all  rent concessions,  credits or discounts you received during the  Lease term. If  you are  in default, the Lease remedies apply. 3. Special Termination Rights . You may have the right under Texas law to terminate the Lease early in certain situations involving military deployment or transfer, family violence, certain sexual offenses, stalking or death of a sole resident . 8 . Delay of Occupancy . We are not responsible for any delay of your occupancy caused by construction, repairs, cleaning, or a previous resident’s holding over . This Lease will remain in force subject to (1) abatement of Rent on a daily basis during delay, and (2) your right  to terminate the Lease in writing as set forth below. Rent abatement  and Lease termination do not apply if the delay is for cleaning or re - pairs that don’t prevent you from moving into the apartment. 8.1. Termination. If we give written notice to you of a delay in  occupancy when or after the Lease begins, you may termi - nate  the Lease  within 3 days after you receive written  notice. If we give you written notice before the date the Lease begins  and the notice states that a construction or other delay is  expected and that the apartment will be ready for you to  occupy on a specific date, you may terminate the Lease within  7 days after  receiving written notice. After proper termination,  you are entitled only to refund of  any deposit(s) and any Rent you paid. 3/21/2022 12:21  PM Apartment Lease Contract ©2022, Texas Apartment Association, Inc.  Blue Moon eSignature Services Document ID: 306414080 Page 2 of 6

    	 

    	 

    

9. Care of Unit and Damages. You must promptly pay or reimburse  us for loss, damage, consequential damages,  government fines or  charges, or cost of repairs or service in the apartment community  because of a Lease  or Community Policies violation; improper use,  negligence, or other conduct by you,  your invitees, your occupants,  or your guests; or, as allowed by law, any other cause not due to our  negligence or fault,  except for damages by acts of God to the extent  they couldn’t be mitigated by your action or inaction. Unless damage or wastewater stoppage is due to our negligence, we’re not liable for — and you must pay for — repairs and replace - ments occurring during the Lease term or renewal period, includ - ing: (A) damage from wastewater stoppages caused by improper objects in lines exclusively serving your apartment; (B) damage to doors, windows, or screens; and (C) damage from windows or doors left open. RESIDENT LIFE 10. Community Policies. Community Policies become part of the Lease and must be followed. We may make changes, including addi - tions,  to our written  Community Policies, and those changes can be - come effective immediately if the  Community Policies are distributed  and applicable to all  units in the apartment community and do not  change the dollar amounts in Lease Details. 1. Photo/Video Release. You give us permission to use any  photograph, likeness,  image or video taken of you while  you are  using property common areas or participating in  any event sponsored by us. 2. Disclosure of Information. At our sole option, we may,  but are not obligated to, share and use information related to this Lease for law - enforcement,  governmental, or business  purposes. At our request,  you authorize any utility provider to  give us information about pending or actual connections or  disconnections of utility  service to your apartment. 3. Guests.  We may exclude from the apartment community  any guests or others who, in our sole judgment, have been  violating the law, violating this Lease or our Community  Policies, or  disturbing  other residents, neighbors, visitors,  or owner representatives.  We  may also exclude from any  outside area  or common area anyone who refuses to show  photo identification or refuses to identify himself or herself as a resident, an authorized occupant, or a guest of  a specific resident in the community. Anyone not listed in this Lease cannot stay in the  apartment for more than 3 days in one week  without our prior written consent, and no more than twice  that many days in any one month. If  the previous space  isn’t filled in, 2 days total per week will be the limit. 4. Notice of Convictions and Registration. You  must  notify us within 15 days if you or any of your occupants: (A) are convicted of any felony,  (B) are convicted of any  misdemeanor involving a controlled  substance, violence  to  another person, or destruction of property, or (C) register as a  sex offender. Informing us of a  criminal conviction or sex - offender registration doesn’t waive any  rights we may  have against you. 5. Odors and Noise. You agree that odors, smoke and  smells including those related to cooking and everyday  noises or sounds are all a normal part of a multifamily  living environment and that it  is impractical for us to  prevent them from  penetrating your apartment. 11. Conduct. You agree to communicate and conduct yourself in a law - ful, courteous and reasonable manner at all  times when interacting  with  us, our representatives and other residents  or occupants. Any  acts of unlawful, discourteous or  unreasonable communication or  conduct by you, your occupants or guests is a breach of this Lease. You must use customary diligence in maintaining the apartment,  keeping it in a  sanitary condition and not damaging or littering the  common areas. Trash  must be disposed of at least weekly. You will  use your apartment and all other areas, including any balconies, with  reasonable care. We  may regulate the use of passageways, patios,  balconies, porches, and activities in common areas. 1. Prohibited Conduct.

Animals. No living creatures of any kind are allowed, even tempo - rarily, anywhere in the apartment or apartment community un - less we’ve given written permission. If we allow an animal,  you must  sign a separate Animal Addendum and,  except as set forth in the ad - dendum, pay an animal deposit and applicable fees and additional  monthly rent, as applicable. An animal deposit is considered a gener - al security deposit.  You represent  that any requests,  statements and  representations you make, including those for  an assistance  or sup - port animal, are  true, accurate and made in good faith. Feeding stray,  feral or wild animals is a breach of this Lease. 12.1. Removal of Unauthorized Animal. We may remove an  unauthorized animal by (1) leaving, in a conspicuous  place in the apartment, a written notice of our intent to  remove the animal within 24 hours; and (2) following the  procedures of Par. 14. We may: keep or kennel the animal;  turn the animal over to a humane society,  local authority  or rescue organization; or return the animal to you if we consent to your request to keep the animal and you  have completed and signed an Animal Addendum and  paid all  fees. When keeping or kenneling an animal,  we  won’t be liable for loss, harm, sickness, or death of the  animal unless due to our negligence. You must pay for  the animal’s reasonable care and kenneling charges. 12.2. Violations of Animal Policies and Charges. If you or any guest or occupant violates the animal restrictions of  this Lease or our Community Policies, you’ll be subject to  charges, damages,  eviction, and other  remedies  provided in this Lease, including animal  violation charges  listed in Lease Details from the date the animal was  brought into your apartment until it is removed. If an  animal has been in the apartment at any time during your term of occupancy (with or without our consent),  we’ll charge you for all  cleaning and repair costs, including defleaing, deodorizing, and shampooing. Initial  and daily animal - violation charges and  animal - removal  charges are liquidated damages for our time,  inconvenience, and overhead in  enforcing animal  restrictions and Community  Policies. 13. Parking. You may not be guaranteed parking. We may regulate the  time, manner,  and place of parking of all  motorized vehicles and other modes of transportation, including bicycles and scooters, in our Community Policies.

If nobody is in the apartment, then any such person may enter peace - fully and at reasonable times (by breaking a window or other means  when necessary) for  reasonable business purposes if written notice of  the entry is left in a conspicuous place in the apartment immediately  after the entry. We are under no obligation to enter only when you are present, and we may, but are not obligated to, give prior notice or  make appointments. 3/21/2022 12:21  PM Apartment Lease Contract ©2022, Texas Apartment Association, Inc.  Blue Moon eSignature Services Document ID: 306414080 Page 3 of 6

    	 

    	 

    

15. Requests, Repairs and  Malfunctions. 1. Written Requests Required. If you or any occupant needs to send a request — for example, for repairs, installations, services, ownership disclosure, or security - related matters — it must be written and delivered to our designated representative in accordance with our Community Policies (except for fair - housing accommodation or modification  requests or situations involving imminent danger or threats to  health or safety, such as fire, smoke, gas, explosion, or crime  in  progress). Our written notes regarding your oral request do not constitute a  written request from you.  Our complying with or responding to any oral request doesn’t waive the strict  requirement for written notices under this Lease. A request for maintenance or repair by anyone residing in your  apartment constitutes a request from  all residents. The time, manner, method and means of performing maintenance and repairs, including whether or which vendors to use, are within our sole discretion. 2. Your Requirement  to Notify. You must promptly notify us in  writing of air conditioning or heating problems, water leaks or  moisture, mold, electrical problems, malfunctioning lights,  broken or missing locks or latches, or any other condition that  poses a hazard or threat  to property, health,  or safety. Unless  we  instruct otherwise,  you are required to keep the apartment cooled or heated according to our Community  Policies. Air conditioning problems are normally  not  emergencies. 3. Utilities. We may change or install utility lines or  equipment serving the apartment if  the work is done  reasonably without substantially increasing your  utility costs. We  may turn off equipment and interrupt  utilities as needed to perform work or to avoid  property damage or other  emergencies. If utilities  malfunction or are damaged by fire, water, or similar cause, you must notify our representative  immediately. 4. Your Remedies. We’ll act with customary diligence to  make repairs and reconnections within a reasonable  time, taking into consideration when  casualty - insurance  proceeds are received. Unless required by statute after a casualty loss, or during equipment repair, your Rent  will not abate in whole or in part.  “Reasonable time”  accounts for the severity and nature of the problem and  the  reasonable availability of  materials, labor, and  utilities. If we fail to timely repair a condition that materially affects the physical health or safety of an ordinary resident as required by the Texas Property Code, you may be entitled to exercise remedies under Α 92.056 and Α 92.0561 of the Texas Property Code. If you follow the procedures under those sections, the following remedies, among others, may be available to you: (1) termination of the Lease and an appropriate refund under 92.056(f); (2) have the condition repaired or remedied according to Α 92.0561; (3) deduct from the Rent the cost of the repair or remedy according to Α 92.0561; and 4) judicial remedies according to Α 92.0563. 16. Our Right to Terminate for Apartment  Community Damage or  Closure. If, in our sole judgment, damages to the unit or building are  significant or performance of needed repairs poses a danger to you,  we may terminate this Lease and your right to possession by giving  you at least 7 days’ written notice. If  termination occurs, you agree  we’ll refund only prorated rent  and all deposits, minus lawful  deduc - tions. We  may remove your personal property if, in our sole judg - ment,  it causes a health or safety hazard or impedes our ability to  make repairs. 1. Property Closure. We also have the right to terminate  this Lease and your right to possession by giving you at  least 30 days’ written notice of termination if  we are  demolishing your apartment or closing it and it will  no  longer be used for residential purposes for at least 6  months, or if  any part of the property becomes subject to  an eminent domain proceeding. 17. Assignments and Subletting. You may not assign this Lease or sub - let your apartment. You agree that you won‘t rent, offer to rent or  license all or any part of your apartment to anyone else unless other - wise agreed to in advance by us in writing. You agree that you won‘t  accept anything of value from anyone else for the use of any part of  your apartment. You agree not to list any part of your apartment on  any lodging or short - term rental website or with any person or ser - vice  that advertises dwellings for rent. 18. Security and Safety Devices. We’ll pay for missing security de - vices that are required by law. You’ll pay for: (A) rekeying that you request (unless we failed to rekey after the previous resi - dent  moved out); and (B) repairs or replacements because of misuse or damage by you or your family, your occupants, or your guests. You must pay immediately after  the work is done unless state  law authorizes advance payment.  You must also pay in advance for  any additional or changed security devices you request. 3/21/2022 12:21  PM Texas Property Code secs. 92.151, 92.153,  and 92.154 require, with some exceptions, that we provide at no cost to you when occupancy begins: (A) a window latch on each window; (B) a doorviewer (peep - hole or window) on each exterior door; (C) a pin lock on each sliding door; (D) either a door - handle latch or a security bar on each sliding door; (E) a keyless bolting device (deadbolt) on each exterior door; and (F) either a keyed doorknob lock or a keyed deadbolt lock on one entry door. Keyed locks will be rekeyed after the prior resident moves out. The rekeying will be done either before you move in or within 7 days after you move in, as required by law. If we fail to in - stall or rekey security devices as required by law, you have the right to do so and deduct the reasonable cost from your next Rent pay - ment under Texas Property Code sec. 92.165(1).  We may deactivate or not install keyless bolting devices on your doors if (A) you or an occupant in the dwelling is over 55 or disabled, and (B) the require - ments of Texas Property Code sec. 92.153(e) or (f) are satisfied. 1. Smoke Alarms and Detection Devices. We’ll furnish  smoke alarms  or other detection devices required by law  or city ordinance. We  may install additional detectors  not so required. We’ll test them and provide working  batteries when you first  take  possession of your  apartment. Upon request, we’ll provide,  as required by  law, a smoke alarm capable of alerting a person with a  hearing  impairment. You must pay for and replace batteries as needed,  unless the law  provides otherwise. We may replace  dead or missing batteries at your expense, without prior notice  to you. Neither you nor your guests or occupants may  disable alarms or detectors. If you damage or disable the smoke alarm or remove a battery without replacing it with a working battery, you may be liable to us under Texas Property Code sec. 92.2611 for $100 plus one month’s Rent, actual damages, and attorney’s fees. 2. Duty to Report. You must immediately report to us any  missing, malfunctioning  or defective security devices,  smoke alarms or detectors. You’ll be liable if you fail to  report malfunctions, or fail to report any loss,  damage, or  fines resulting from fire, smoke,  or water. 19. Resident  Safety  and Loss. Unless otherwise required by law, none of us, our employees, agents, or management companies are liable to you, your guests or occupants for any damage, personal injury, loss to personal property, or loss of business or personal income, from any cause, including but not limited to: negligent or intention - al acts of residents, occupants, or guests; theft, burglary, assault, vandalism or other crimes; fire, flood, water leaks, rain, hail, ice, snow, smoke, lightning, wind, explosions, interruption of utilities, pipe leaks or other occurrences unless such damage, injury or loss is caused exclusively by our negligence. We do not warrant security of any kind. You agree that you will not  rely upon any security measures taken by us for personal security,  and that you will  call  911 and local law enforcement authorities if any  security needs arise. You acknowledge that we are  not equipped or trained to provide  personal security services to you,  your guests or occupants. You rec - ognize that we  are  not required to provide any private security ser - vices and that no security devices or measures on the property are  fail - safe. You further acknowledge that, even if an alarm  or gate ame - nities are provided, they are mechanical devices that  can malfunc - tion. Any charges resulting from the use of an intrusion alarm will be  charged to you, including, but not limited to, any false alarms with  police/fire/ambulance response or  other required city charges. 20. Condition  of the Premises and Alterations. 20.1. As - Is. We  disclaim all implied warranties. You accept the  apartment,  fixtures, and furniture as is, except  for  conditions materially affecting the health or safety  of  ordinary persons.  You’ll be given an Inventory and  Condition Form at  or before move - in. You agree that after completion of the form or within 48 hours after  move - in, whichever comes first, you must note on the  form all defects or damage, sign the form,  return it to us, and the form accurately reflects  the condition of the  premises for purposes of determining any refund due to  you when you move out. Otherwise, everything will be  considered to be in a clean,  safe, and good working  condition. You must still send a  separate request for any  repairs needed as provided by Par. 15.1. 20.2. Standards and Improvements. Unless authorized by  law or by us in writing, you must not perform any repairs,  painting, wallpapering, carpeting, electrical changes, or  otherwise alter our property. No holes or stickers are  allowed inside or outside the apartment.  Unless our  Community Policies state otherwise, we’ll permit a  reasonable number of small nail holes for hanging  pictures on sheetrock walls and in grooves of wood - paneled walls. No water furniture, washing machines,  dryers, extra phone or television outlets, alarm systems, Apartment Lease Contract ©2022, Texas Apartment Association, Inc.  Blue Moon eSignature Services Document ID: 306414080 Page 4 of 6

    	 

    	 

    

cameras,  video or other doorbells, or lock changes,  additions, or rekeying is permitted unless required by law  or we’ve consented in writing.  You may install a  satellite  dish or antenna, but only if you sign our satellite - dish or  antenna lease addendum, which complies with reasonable  restrictions allowed by federal law. You must not alter,  damage, or remove our property, including alarm systems,  detection devices, appliances, furniture, telephone and television wiring,  screens, locks,  or security devices. When you  move in, we’ll supply light bulbs for fixtures we furnish,  including exterior fixtures operated from  inside the  apartment; after  that, you’ll replace them at your expense  with bulbs of the same type and wattage. Your improvements  to the apartment (made with or without our consent) become  ours unless we agree otherwise in writing. 21. Notices. Written notice to or from our employees, agents, or  management companies constitutes notice to or from us. Notices to  you or any other resident of the apartment constitute notice to all  residents. Notices and requests  from any  resident constitute notice  from all residents. Only residents can give notice of Lease  termination  and intent to move out under Par. 7.3. All notices and documents will  be in English and, at  our option, in any other language that you read  or speak. 21.1. Electronic Notice. Notice may be given electronically by us to you if allowed by law. If allowed by law and in  accordance with our Community Policies, electronic  notice from you to us must be sent to the email address  and/or portal  specified in Community  Policies. Notice  may also be given by phone call or to a physical address  if allowed in our Community Policies. You represent that you have provided your current email address to us, and that you will notify us in the event your email address changes . EVICTION AND REMEDIES 22. Liability. Each resident is jointly and severally liable for  all Lease  obligations. If you or any guest or occupant violates the Lease or our  Community Policies, all residents are considered to have violated the  Lease. 1. Indemnificationby You. You’lldefend, indemnify and hold us and our employees, agents, and management company harmless from all liability arising from your conduct or requests to our representatives and from the conduct of or requests by your invitees, occupants or guests. 23. Default by Resident. 1. Acts of Default. You’ll  be in default if: (A) you don’t  timely pay  Rent, including monthly recurring charges, or  other amounts you owe; (B) you or any guest or occupant violates this  Lease, our Community Policies, or fire, safety, health, criminal or other laws, regardless of  whether or where arrest or conviction occurs; (C) you give incorrect, incomplete, or false answers in a rental  application or in this Lease; or (D) you or any occupant is  charged, detained, convicted, or given  deferred  adjudication or pretrial  diversion for  (1) an offense  involving actual or potential physical harm to  a person, or  involving the manufacture or delivery of a controlled  substance, marijuana, or  drug paraphernalia as defined in the Texas Controlled Substances Act, or (2) any sex - related crime, including a misdemeanor. 2. Eviction. If you default, including holding over, we may end your right of occupancy by giving you at least a 24 - hour written notice to vacate. Termination  of your possession  rights doesn’t release  you from liability for future Rent or other Lease obligations. After giving notice to vacate or filing an eviction suit, we may still accept Rent or other sums due; the filing or acceptance doesn’t waive or diminish our right of eviction or any other contractual or statutory right. Accepting money at any time doesn’t waive  our right to damages, to past or future Rent or other sums, or to our continuing with eviction proceedings. In an eviction,  Rent is owed for the full rental period and will not be  prorated. 3. Acceleration. Unless we elect  not to accelerate Rent, all  monthly Rent for the rest of the Lease term or renewal  period will be accelerated automatically without notice  or demand (before or after acceleration) and will be  immediately due if, without our written consent: (A) you  move out, remove property in preparing to move out,  or you or any occupant gives oral or written notice of  intent to move out before the Lease term or renewal  period ends; and (B) you haven’t paid all Rent for the entire Lease term or renewal period. Remaining Rent will  also be accelerated if you’re judicially evicted or move  out when we demand because you’ve defaulted. If you don’t pay the first month’s Rent when or before the  Lease begins, all future Rent for the Lease term will be  automatically accelerated without  notice  and become  immediately due. We also may end your right of occupancy  and recover damages, future Rent, attorney’s fees, court costs,  and other lawful charges. 4. Holdover. You or any occupant or guest must not hold  over beyond the date  contained in: (1) your move - out  notice, (2) our notice to vacate,  (3) our notice of non - renewal, or (4) a  written agreement specifying a  different  move - out date. If a holdover occurs, then you’ll  be liable to us for all Rent for the full term of the previously  signed lease of a new resident who can’t occupy because of the holdover, and at  our option, we may extend the Lease term and/or increase the Rent by 25% by delivering  written notice to you or your apartment while you continue  to hold over. 5. Other Remedies. We  may report unpaid amounts to  credit agencies as allowed by law. If we or our debt  collector tries to collect any money you owe us, you agree that we or the debt collector may contact you by  any legal means. If you default, you will pay us,  in addition  to other sums due, any rental discounts or concessions agreed to in writing that have been applied to your account.  We  may recover attorney’s fees in connection with enforcing  our rights under this Lease. All unpaid amounts you owe bear  interest at  the rate  provided by Texas  Finance Code Section  304.003(c) from the due date. You must pay all collection - agency fees if you fail to pay sums due within 10 days after  you are  mailed a letter  demanding payment and stating that  collection - agency fees will be added if you don’t pay all  sums  by that deadline. You are  also liable for a charge (not to  exceed $150) to cover our time, cost and expense for any  eviction proceeding against you, plus our attorney’s fees and  expenses, court costs, and filing fees actually paid. 24. Representatives’ Authority and Waivers.  Our representatives (in - cluding management personnel, employees, and agents) have no authority to waive, amend, or terminate this Lease or any part of it unless in writing and signed, and no authority to make promises, rep - resentations, or agreements that impose security duties or other ob - ligations on us or our representatives, unless in writing and signed. No action or omission by us will be considered a waiver of our rights or of  any subsequent violation, default, or time or place of performance. Our choice to enforce, not enforce or delay enforcement of written - no - tice requirements, rental due dates, acceleration, liens, or any other rights isn’t a waiver under any circumstances. Delay in demanding  sums you owe is not a waiver. Except when notice or demand is required  by law, you waive any notice and demand for performance from us if you  default. Nothing in this Lease constitutes a waiver of our remedies for a  breach under your prior lease that occurred before the Lease term begins. All remedies are cumulative. Exercising one remedy won’t constitute  an election or waiver of other remedies.  All provisions regarding our  nonliability or nonduty apply to our employees, agents,  and manage - ment companies. No employee, agent, or management company is  personally liable for  any of  our contractual, statutory, or other obliga - tions merely by virtue of acting on our behalf. END OF  THE LEASE TERM 25. Move - Out Notice. Before moving out, you must give our represen - tative advance written move - out notice as stated in Par. 4, even if the Lease has become a month - to - month lease. The move - out date  can’t  be changed unless we and you both agree in writing. Your move - out notice must comply with each of the following: (a) Unless we require more than 30 days’ notice, if you give notice on the first day of the month you intend to move out, move out will be on the last day of that month . (b) Your move - out notice must not terminate the Lease  before the end of the Lease term or renewal period. (c) If we require you to give us more than 30 days’ written  notice to move out before the end of the Lease term, we  will give you 1 written reminder not less than 5 days nor  more than 90 days before your deadline for giving us your written move - out notice.  If we fail to give a reminder  notice,  30 days’ written notice to move out is required. (d) You must get from us a written acknowledgment of your  notice. 26. Move - Out Procedures. 26. 1. Cleaning. You must thoroughly clean the apartment, including  doors,  windows, furniture, bathrooms, kitchen appliances,  patios, balconies,  garages,  carports, and storage rooms.  You  must follow move - out cleaning instructions if they have been  provided. If you don’t clean adequately, you’ll be liable  for  reasonable  cleaning charges — including charges for cleaning  carpets, draperies, furniture, walls, etc. that are soiled beyond  normal wear  (that is, wear  or soiling that occurs without  negligence, carelessness, accident, or abuse). 3/21/2022 12:21  PM Apartment Lease Contract ©2022, Texas Apartment Association, Inc.  Blue Moon eSignature Services Document ID: 306414080 Page 5 of 6

    	 

    	 

    

26.2. Move - Out Inspection. We may, but are not obligated to,  provide a joint move - out inspection. Our representatives  have no authority to bind or limit us regarding deductions for  repairs,  damages, or charges. Any statements or estimates by  us or our representative are  subject to our correction, modi - fication, or disapproval before final accounting or refunding. 27. Surrender and Abandonment. You  have  surrendered the apartment  when: (A) the move - out date has passed and no one is living in the  apartment in our reasonable judgment; or (B) apartment keys and ac - cess devices listed in Par. 2.1 have been turned in to us — whichever  happens  first. You have abandoned the apartment when all  of the following have  occurred: (A)  everyone appears to have moved out in our reasonable  judgment; (B) you’ve been in default for nonpayment of Rent for 5  consecutive days, or water, gas, or electric service for the apartment  not connected in our name has been terminated or transferred; and (C) you’ve not responded for 2 days to our notice left on the inside of  the main entry door stating that we consider the apartment aban - doned. An apartment is also considered abandoned 10 days after the  death of a sole resident. 1. The Ending of Your Rights. Surrender,  abandonment, or  judicial eviction ends your right of possession for all  purposes  and gives us the immediate right to clean up, make repairs in,  and relet the  apartment; determine any security - deposit  deductions; and remove or store property left in the apartment. 2. Removal and Storage of Property. We, or law officers, may — but have no duty to — remove or store all property that  in our  sole judgment belongs to you and remains in the apartment  or in common areas (including any vehicles you or any  occupant or guest owns or uses) after  you’re judicially evicted  or if  you surrender or abandon the apartment. We’re not liable for casualty, loss, damage, or theft. You  must pay reasonable charges for our packing, removing and  storing any property. Except for animals, we may throw away or give to a charitable  organization all personal property that is: (1) left  in the apartment after surrender or abandonment; or (2) left outside more than 1 hour after writ of possession is  executed, following judicial eviction. An animal removed after surrender, abandonment, or eviction  may be kenneled or turned over to a local authority, humane  society, or rescue organization. GENERAL  PROVISIONS AND SIGNATURES 28. TAA Membership. We, the management company representing us,  or any locator service that you used confirms membership in good  standing of both the Texas Apartment Association and the affiliated  local apartment association for the area  where the apartment is  located at the time of signing this Lease. If not,  the following applies: (A) this Lease is voidable at  your option and is unenforceable by us  (except  for property damages);  and (B) we  may not recover past or  future rent or other charges. The above remedies also apply if both of the following occur:  (1) the Lease is automatically renewed on a  month - to - month basis more than once after membership in TAA and  the local association has lapsed; and (2)  neither the owner nor the man - agement company is a member of TAA and the local association during  the third automatic renewal.  A signed affidavit from the affiliated local  apartment association attesting to nonmembership when the Lease or renewal was signed will be conclusive evidence of nonmembership.  Governmental entities may use TAA forms if TAA agrees in writing. Name, address and telephone number of locator service (if applicable): 29. Severability and Survivability. If any provision of this Lease is invalid  or unenforceable under applicable law, it won’t invalidate the remain - der of the Lease or change the intent of the parties.  Paragraphs  10.1,  10.2, 16, 27 and 31 shall survive the termination of this Lease.  This Lease binds subsequent owners. 30. Controlling Law. Texas law governs this Lease. All litigation arising  under this Lease and all  Lease obligations must be brought in the  county, and precinct if applicable, where the apartment is located. 31. Waivers. By signing this Lease, you agree to the following: 1. Class  Action Waiver. You agree that you will not participate  in any class action claims against us or our employees, agents,  or management company. You must file any claim against us  individually, and you expressly waive your right to bring, represent, join or otherwise maintain a class action, collective action or similar proceeding against us in any forum. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, WITHOUT THIS WAIVER,  YOU COULD BE A PARTY IN A CLASS ACTION  LAWSUIT. BY SIGNING THIS LEASE, YOU ACCEPT THIS WAIVER  AND CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY CLAIMS DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION  OF THIS LEASE. 31.2. Force Majeure. If we are prevented from completing substan - tial  performance of any obligation under this Lease by  occurrences that are beyond our control, including but not limited to, an act of God, strikes, epidemics, war, acts of  terrorism, riots, flood, fire, hurricane, tornado, sabotage or  governmental regulation, then we shall  be excused from  any  further performance of obligations to the fullest  extent  allowed by law. 32. Special Provisions. The following, or attached Special Provisions and  any addenda or Community Policies provided to you, are  part of this  Lease and supersede any conflicting provisions in this Lease. Before submitting a rental application or signing this Lease, you  should review  the documents and may consult an attorney. You are  bound by this Lease when it is signed.  An electronic signature is  binding. This Lease is the entire agreement between you and us. You are NOT relying on any oral representations.

3/21/2022 12:21  PM Mold  Information and Prevention Addendum 1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the Lease Contract executed by  you, the resident or residents, on the dwelling you have agreed to rent. That dwelling is: Unit # 202N at SPUS9 HSTN North Tower LP , (name of apartments) or other dwelling located at (street address of house, duplex, etc.) City/State where dwelling is located . 2. About Mold . Mold is found everywhere in our environment, both indoors and outdoors and in both new and old structures . Molds are nothing new — they are natural microscopic organisms that reproduce by spores . They have always been with us . In the environment, molds break down organic matter and use the end product for food . Without molds we would be struggling with large amounts of dead organic matter . Mold spores (like plant pollen) spread through the air and are commonly transported by shoes, clothing, and other materials . There is conflicting scientific evidence about how much mold must accumulate before it creates adverse health effects on people and animals . Even so, we must take appropriate precautions to prevent its buildup . 3. Preventing Mold Begins with You . to minimze the potential for mold growth in your dwelling, you must : • Keep your dwelling clean — particularly the kitchen, bathroom, carpets, and floors . Regular vacuuming and mopping of the floors, plus cleaning hard surfaces using a household cleaner, are all important to remove the household dirt and debris that harbor mold or food for mold . Throw away moldy food immediately . • Remove visible moisture accumulations on windows, walls, ceilings, floors, and other surfaces as soon as reasonably possible . Look for leaks in washing - machine hoses and discharge lines — especially if the leak is large enough for water to seep into nearby walls . If your dwelling has them, turn on exhaust fans in the bathroom before showering and in the kitchen before cooking with open pots . Also when showering, keep the shower curtain inside the tub (or fully close the shower doors) . Experts also recommend that after a shower or bath you ( 1 ) wipe moisture off shower walls, shower doors, the bathtub, and the bathroom floor ; ( 2 ) leave the bathroom door open until all moisture on the mirrors and bathroom walls and tile surfaces has dissipated ; and ( 3 ) hang up your towels and bath mats so they will completely dry out . • Promptly notify us in writing about any air - conditioning or heating - system problems you discover . Follow any of our rules about replacing air filters . It’s also good practice to open windows and doors periodically on days when the outdoor weather is dry (i . e . , humidity is below 50 % ) to help humid areas of your dwelling dry out . • Promptly notify us in writing of any signs of water leaks, water infiltration, or mold . We will respond in accordance with state law and the Lease Contract to repair or remedy the situation as necessary . 4. Avoiding Moisture Buildup . To avoid mold growth, it’s important to prevent excess moisture buildup in your dwelling . Failing to promptly attend to leaks and moisture accumulations on dwelling surfaces can encourage mold growth, especially in places where they might get inside walls or ceilings . Prolonged moisture can come from a wide variety of sources, such as : • rainwater leaking from roofs, windows, doors, and outside walls, as well as flood waters rising above floor level ; • overflows from showers, bathtubs, toilets, sinks, washing machines, dehumidifiers, refrigerator or air - conditioner drip pans, or clogged air - conditioner condensation lines ; • leaks from plumbing lines or fixtures, and leaks into walls from bad or missing grouting or caulking around showers, bathtubs, or sinks ; • washing - machine hose leaks, plant - watering overflows, pet urine, cooking spills, beverage spills, and steam from excessive open - pot cooking ; • leaks from clothes - dryer discharge vents (which can put a lot of moisture into the air) ; and • insufficient drying of carpets, carpet pads, shower walls, and bathroom floors . 5. Cleaning Mold . If small areas of mold have already accumulated on nonporous surfaces (such as ceramic tile, formica, vinyl flooring, metal, wood, or plastic), the Environmental Protection Agency recommends that you first clean the areas with soap (or detergent) and water and let the surface dry thoroughly . (Applying biocides without first cleaning away the dirt and oils from the surface is like painting over old paint without first cleaning and preparing the surface . ) When the surface is dry — and within 24 hours of cleaning — apply a premixed spray - on household biocide such as Lysol Disinfectant®, Original Pine - Sol® Cleaner, Tilex Mold & Mildew Remover® or Clorox® Clean - up® Cleaner + Bleach . (Note two things : First, only a few of the common household cleaners can actually kill mold . Second, Tilex and Clorox contain bleach, which can discolor or stain surfaces, so follow the instructions on the container . ) Always clean and apply a biocide to an area five or six times larger than any mold you see — mold can be present but not yet visible to the naked eye . A vacuum cleaner with a high - efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter can be used to help remove nonvisible mold products from porous items such as fibers in sofas, chairs, drapes, and carpets — providedthefibersarecompletelydry .

Statewide Form 19 - JJ, Revised October 2019 TAA Official Co pyright 2019, Texas Apartment Association, Inc. Bed bugs are wingless, flat, broadly oval - shaped in - sects, with a typical lifespan of 6 to 12 months . Capa - ble of reaching the size of an apple seed at full growth, bed bugs are distinguishable by their reddish - brown color, although after feeding on the blood of hu - mans and warm - blooded animals — their sole food source — the bugs assume a distinctly blood - red hue until digestion is complete . Bed bugs don’t discriminate . Bed bugs’ increased presence across the United States in recent decades is due largely to a surge in interna - tional travel and trade . It’s no surprise then that bed bugs have been found in some of the fanciest hotels and apartment buildings in some of the nation’s most expensive neighborhoods . Nonetheless, false claims that associate bed bugs presence with poor hygiene and uncleanliness have caused rental - housing residents, out of shame, to avoid notifying owners of their presence . This only causes the bed bugs to spread . While bed bugs are more attracted to clutter, they’re certainly not discouraged by cleanliness . Bottom line : bed bugs know no social or economic bounds ; claims to the contrary are false . Bed bugs don’t  transmit disease. There exists no scientific evidence that bed bugs carry disease . In fact, federal agencies tasked with addressing pests of public - health concern, namely the U . S . Environmental Protection Agency and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, have re - fused to elevate bed bugs to the threat level posed by disease - carrying pests . Again, claims associating bed bugs with disease are false . Learn to identify bed bugs. Bed bugs can  often be found in, around, behind, un - der, or between: • Bedding • Bed frames • Mattress seams • Upholstered furniture, especially under cushions  and along seams • Wood furniture, especially along areas where draw - ers slide • Curtains and draperies • Window and door frames • Ceiling and wall junctions • Crown moldings • Wall hangings and loose wallpaper • Carpeting and walls (carpet can be pulled away from  the wall  and tack strip) • Cracks and crevices  in walls  and floors • Electronic devices, such as smoke and carbon - mon - oxide  detectors Because bed bugs leave some people with itchy welts  similar to those made by fleas and mosquitoes, the Bed Bugs A Guide for Rental - Housing Residents ( Adapted with permission from the National Apartment Association ) cause of welts like that often go misdiagnosed . One distinguishing sign is that bed - bug marks often ap - pear in succession on exposed areas of the skin such as the face, neck, and arms . But sometimes a person has no visible reaction at all from direct contact with bed bugs . While bed bugs typically act at night, they often leave signs of their presence through fecal markings of a red to dark - brown color, visible on or near beds . Blood stains also tend to appear when the bugs have been squashed, usually by an unsuspecting sleeping host . And because they shed, it’s not uncommon to find the skin casts they leave behind . Prevent bed - bug encounters  when traveling. Because humans serve as bed bugs’ main mode of transportation, it’s especially important to be mindful of bed bugs when away from home . Experts attribute the spread of bed bugs across all regions of the Unit - ed States largely to increases in travel and trade, both here and abroad . So travelers are encouraged to take a few minutes on arriving to thoroughly inspect their accommodations before unpacking . Because bed bugs can easily travel from one place to another, it’s also a good practice to thoroughly inspect luggage and belongings for bed bugs before heading home . Know the bed - bug  dos and don’ts. • Don’t bring used furniture from unknown sourc - es into your dwelling . Countless bed - bug infesta - tions have stemmed directly from bringing home second - hand and abandoned furniture . Unless you are absolutely sure that a piece of second - hand furniture is bed - bug - free, you should as - sume that a seemingly nice looking leather couch, for example, is sitting curbside waiting to be hauled off to the landfill because it’s teeming with bed bugs . • Do inspect rental furniture, including mattresses and couches, for the presence of bed bugs before moving it into your dwelling . • Do address bed - bug sightings immediately . Rent - al - housing residents who suspect the presence of bed bugs in their unit must immediately notify the owner . • Don’t try to treat bed - bug infestations yourself . Health hazards associated with the misapplica - tion of traditional and nontraditional chemical - based insecticides and pesticides poses too great a risk to you, your family and pets, and your neighbors . • Do comply with eradication protocol . If the deter - mination is made that your unit is indeed playing host to bed bugs, you must comply with the bed - bug - eradication protocol set forth by both your owner and their designated pest - management company .

The ratio occupancy formula will reflect what the owner believes more accurately represents the water use in units that are occupied by multiple tenants . The ratio occupancy formula that is used must assign a fractional portion per tenant of no less than that on the following scale : (ii) dwelling unit with one occupant = 1; dwelling unit with two occupants = 1.6; (I) (II) (III) dwelling unit with three occupants = 2.2; or (IV) dwelling unit with more than three occupants = 2 . 2 + 0 . 4 per each additional occupant over three ; or (iii) the average number of occupants per bedroom, which shall be determined by the following occupancy formula .

The square footage portion must be based on the total square footage living area of the dwelling unit as a percentage of the total square footage living area of all dwelling units of the apartment house ; or (v) the individually submetered hot or cold water usage of the tenant’s dwelling unit divided by all submetered hot or cold water usage in all dwelling units ; (B) a condominium manager shall multiply the amount established in paragraph ( 1 ) of this subsection by any of the factors under subparagraph (A) of this paragraph or may follow the methods outlined in the \ condominiumcontract ; (C) for a manufactured home rental community, the owner shall multiply the amount established in paragraph ( 1 ) of this subsection by : (i) any of the factors developed under subparagraph (A) of this paragraph ; or (ii) the area of the individual rental space divided by the total area of all rental spaces ; and (D) for a multiple use facility, the owner shall multiply the amount established in paragraph (1) of this subsection by: (I) any of the factors developed under subparagraph (A) of this paragraph; or (II) the square footage of the rental space divided by the total square footage of all rental spaces . ( 3 ) If atenantmovesin or outduring abillingperiod,theownermaycalculate a bill for the tenant . If the tenant moves in during a billing period, the ownershallproratethebill by calculating abill as if thetenantwerethere for the whole month and then charging the tenant for only the number of days the tenant lived in the unit divided by the number of days in the month multiplied by the calculated bill . If a tenant moves out during a billing period before the owner receives the bill for that period from the retail public utility, the owner may calculate a final bill . owner may calculate the tenant’s bill by calculating the tenant’s average bill for the last three months and multiplying that average bill by the number of days the tenant was in the unit divided by the number of days in that month .

Texas Apartment Association 3/21/2022 12:21  PM LEASE ADDENDUM FOR ALLOCATING STORMWATER/DRAINAGE COSTS 1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the  TAA Lease Contract for Apt. No. 202N in the SPUS 9 HSTN North Tower LP Apartments in Houston , Texas . The terms of this addendum will control if the terms of the Lease and this addendum conflict . 2. Reason for allocation . Governmental entities impose stormwater/drainage fees to help pay for the cost of maintaining the infrastructure needed to prevent flooding and lessen the impact of pollution on our water system . These fees can be significant . Our property has chosen to allocate this fee so residents are more aware of the true costs associated with these fees and so it is not necessary to raise rents to keep pace with these fee increases . 3. Your payment due date . Payment of your allocated stormwater/drainage bill is due 16 days after the date it is postmarked or hand delivered to your apartment . You agree to mail or deliver payment to the place indicated on your bill so that payment is received no later than the due date . You will pay a late charge of 5 percent of your stormwater/drainage bill if we do not receive timely payment . If you are late in paying the stormwater/drainage bill, we may immediately exercise all lawful remedies under your lease contract, including eviction — just like late payment of rent . 4. Allocation procedures . Your monthly base rent under the TAA Lease Contract does not include a charge for stormwater/ drainage costs . You will pay separately for these monthly recurring fixed charges which are defined under the Lease as “Additional Rent” . You may receive a separate bill from us each month or we may include these items as separate and distinct charges as part of a multi - item bill . You agree to and we will allocate the monthly stormwater/drainage bill for the apartment community based on the allocation method checked below . (check only one) D A percentag e reflecting your apartmen t unit ’ s share o f the total square footage i n the apartmen t communit y , i . e . your unit ’ s square footage divide d b y the total square footage i n al l apartmen t units . D A percentage reflecting your apartment unit’s share of the total number of people living in the apartment community, i . e . the number of people living in your apartment divided by the total number of people living in the entire apartment commu - nity for the month . (“People” for this purpose are all residents and occupants listed in leases at the apartment community as having a right to occupy the respective units) . D Half of your allocation will be based on your apartment’s share of total square footage and half will be based on your share of total people living in the apartment community, as described above . D X Per dwelling unit D Other formula (see attached page) 5. Penalties and fees . Only the total stormwater/drainage bill will be allocated . Penalties or interest for any late payment of the master stormwater/ drainage bill by us will be paid for by us and will not be allocated . A nominal administrative fee of $ 1 . 15 per month (not to exceed $ 3 ) will be added to your bill for processing, billing and/or collecting . 6. Change of allocation formula . The above allocation formula for determining your share of the stormwater/drainage bill cannot be changed except as follows : ( 1 ) you receive notice of the new formula at least 35 days before it takes effect ; and (2) you agree to the change in a signed lease renewal or signed mutual  agreement. 7. Right to examine records . You may examine our stormwater/drainage bills from the utility company, and our calculations relating to the monthly allocation of the stormwater/drainage bills during regular weekday office hours . Please give us reasonable advance notice to gather the data .
