Lessor rents to Lessee and Lessee rents from Lessor the above noted Space located at the above-referenced address of Lessor and included in a larger self-service storage facility at such address containing similar rented spaces and common areas for the use of Lessee and other Lessees (the entire self-service storage facility is hereinafter referred to as the “Property”). Lessee shall examine the Space and the Property and acknowledges and agrees the measurements noted for the Space are an approximation only, that space size is estimated and does not refer to usable space, the size of the Space and any referenced sizes are approximate, given for illustration only and may vary materially and that Lessee shall have had the opportunity to measure the Space, and that the Space and the common areas of the Property are satisfactory for all purposes for which Lessee shall use the Space or the common areas of the Property including the size and capacity of the Space. Lessee shall have access to the Space and the common areas of the Property only during such hours and days as are regularly posted at the Property which the Lessor may change.

TERM AND RENT. The term of this Lease/Rental Agreement shall commence as of the date written above and shall continue from the first day of the month immediately following on a month-to-month basis until terminated. Lessee shall pay Lessor as a monthly Rent, without deduction, prior notice, demand or billing statement, the sum noted above (plus any applicable tax imposed by any taxing authority) in advance on the first day of each month. Lessee further agrees to immediately pay any additional fees and charges that may become due. A schedule of fees and charges are detailed in paragraph three (3). If the term of this Lease/Rental Agreement shall commence other than on the first day of the month, Lessee shall pay a pro rata portion of the first month’s Rent and a full month’s Rent for the second month’s Rent. Lessee understands and agrees that under no circumstances will Lessee be entitled to a refund of the Rent Fee paid upon execution of the Lease/Rental Agreement, and, thereafter, if this Lease/Rental Agreement terminates other than on the last day of the month, Lessee shall not be entitled to a refund of a pro rata portion of the Rent for the month in which the termination occurs.

Any such adjustment shall not otherwise affect other terms of this Lease/Rental Agreement and all other terms of this Lease/Rental Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect.
FEES. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, lessor shall have no obligation of sending a monthly invoice to Lessee. Lessee acknowledges that late payment of Rent shall cause Lessor to incur costs not contemplated by this Agreement, the exact amount of such costs being extremely difficult to fix. Therefore, if any Rent is received after five (5) days from the Due Date, Lessee shall pay to Lessor an additional sum of $20.00 as a late fee for each month Rent is past due, such amount being considered liquidated damages. The Parties agree that these late charges represent a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs the Lessor shall incur by reason of late payment by Lessee. Lessor shall not waive any rights under the law for non-payment of Rent. Said late charges are due and payable by Lessee without demand from Lessor. If any check is dishonored for any reason, Lessee shall pay said late charges in addition to a return check charge of $35.00 as an NSF fee.
