I/We, as Tenant, agree to lease the studio condominium unit at 7610 N. Lake Blvd, Unit #11 (in Tahoya Shores condominium), Tahoe Vista, California 96143, from the Owners (Stanley M. Sokolow, Sonya Sokolow, and Elisabeth V. Tatum), and Owners agree to lease to Tenant, under the following terms which are mutually agreed by Owners and Tenant. "Tenant" refers to all renters identified in this lease, jointly and severally.

Here is the information about all adults who will be tenants of the unit. (If there are more than two, provide the additional information on another page.)

WHERE TO SEND PAYMENTS: This total should be submitted by cashier's check, money order, or equivalent official check (not a personal or business check) or by electronic funds transfer. Also print out, complete, and mail to the address below or fax this agreement to 831-423-4840. For questions about billing and payment, call 831-423-1417. To be sure that the payment and agreement arrive in time for your trip when there are just a few days before you want to arrive, we suggest overnight mail or electronic transfer if time is short. Management's business address is:

OPTIONAL ELECTRONIC PAYMENT: Property manager can receive your payment online from your credit card, through PayPal. To pay online, fill in the information requested on this form, print out the form, sign it, and fax it to Sokolow Property Management. On the form write “Please send PayPal instructions” if you wish to pay by credit card through PayPal, the online payment service of the eBay Company. The requested instructions will be sent by email.

When your payment and agreement are received, property manager will send an e-mail message confirming the reservation and giving you instructions on obtaining the key. If Tenant does not have access to email, Tenant should notify Owner's agent to send the confirmation through regular postal service mail.

OWNERS' AGENT: In addition to the local companies (such as utilities) and persons (such as the house cleaner) mentioned in the Reservation Confirmation email, Tenant should contact the following person (Owner's Agent) regarding questions or problems involving this property:

CANCELLATION: I understand that I may cancel this reservation at any time up to 90 days before the starting date of this lease and receive a full refund less a $200 cancellation fee. I agree that if I cancel with less than 90 days' notice before the starting date but at least 30 days' notice in advance of the starting date, I will forfeit half of the rent deposit and receive a refund for the rest of my prepaid amounts. If I cancel less than 30 days in advance of the starting date, there will be no refund except of the unused cleaning fee and the security deposit.

CLEANING, DAMAGE, SECURITY REFUNDS: I agree to leave the unit in as good condition as when I receive it. I will pay for any damages I cause. I will leave the place reasonably clean, but I understand that a professional cleaner will also clean the place after I move out even if I leave the place reasonably clean. This is a no-smoking unit, so smoking inside the unit is not an authorized use. Extra cleaning to remove smoking odors will therefore be charged to Tenants who violate this prohibition. The unused security deposit will be refunded as soon as possible, but within 21 days after end of rental, as provided by California law, unless delayed by the time required to repair damage or to obtain the estimated charge. Cleaning during occupancy is the responsibility of Tenant, not included in rent.

UTILITIES: The rent includes garbage removal, water and sewer service, routine spa and pool service (when available), cable TV, local telephone service, water heating, and snow plow service when needed in winter. I will take reasonable care to conserve these utilities. Space heating is by electric wall heaters. ELECTRICITY USAGE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RENT -- TENANT WILL BE BILLED MONTHLY FOR ELECTRICITY COST. Tenant agrees: I will put my garbage in bags into the garbage bin in the front of the building. I will take all of my food and garbage out of the unit when I vacate. I will promptly move my car out of the way of the snow removal tractor if requested. The telephone has restricted service which blocks outgoing toll and long-distance calls, but allows local outgoing calls and all incoming calls. (Cell phone signal may be weak inside this unit.)

TENANT CHARGES FOR UTILITIES: Electricity usage will be billed to the Tenant by Owner and shall be considered additional rent due immediately on receipt of notice. The electric bill will be adjusted to reasonably reflect the Tenant's monthly usage when occupancy does not exactly coincide with the electric billing cycle. These charges will be due when billed to Tenant and will be late if not paid or postmarked within 10 days. Late payment will be subject to the Late Payment Fee stated above. Since mail is not delivered to the unit, Tenant will be sent utility billings by Owner/Agent using email. If Tenant has no email, Tenant should inform the management or Owner's Agent (Shannon Sokolow) about the Tenant's local mailing address (general delivery, post-office box number, or whatever) and/or call Owner's Agent to determine the utility usage charges monthly.

EMERGENCIES INVOLVING THE PREMISES: In the event of a serious emergency, such as plumbing leakage causing flooding within the unit, Tenant should immediately call the on-site resident manager Alma Herrera 530-546-5943 and/or Owner's real estate agent Sue Daniels 530-210-0222.

MAIL, INTERNET, NOTICES: The U.S. Postal Service does not deliver to any homes in the Tahoe area. Instead, it is necessary to go to the post office to receive mail. Tenant should contact the local post office (Kings Beach) for information on how mail should be addressed to Tenant and how to pick up mail at the office. If Tenant rents a post-office box, Tenant should notify Owners or Owners' agent. Notices and billing invoices will be sent to Tenant from Owners by email over the Internet, and a copy sent to Tenant by U.S. mail addressed to the principal tenant by "general delivery" to the Kings Beach post office or to the Tenant's post-office box number if so notified. The local phone service can be used for connection to the Internet through a modem and Tenant's own computer to the Tenant's own Internet Service Provider (ISP). In many ISP databases, the city is called "Kings Beach" or "Brockway" or "Old Brockway", California.

WINTERIZING, BLOCKAGES: I will follow the instructions regarding the proper setting of the heating thermostat when I'm out of the unit. That is, when I finally leave, the thermostat of the heating system will be left ON, but the temperature setting turned down to the lowest number, to prevent freezing of the pipes. I understand that severe damage can occur to the plumbing system if I fail to do the winterizing in freezing weather, and that I would be financially responsible for the repair charges. Sewer blockages caused by improper things (such as paper towels or tampons) being put down drains during my stay will be cleared or repaired at my expense.

KEYS, NUISANCE, VIOLATIONS: I will return all keys as instructed by Owner's agent when I vacate. My guests and I won't annoy the neighbors by making a nuisance. I agree that violating any of my promises could result in fines described below and may end my stay in the unit prematurely.

OWNERS' ASSOCIATION RULES, REGULATIONS, AND FINES: This unit is subject to the Association Rules and Regulations, and the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) of the Tahoya Shores Condominium Owners Association, Inc. (A copy of the CC&Rs is available on the Internet at http://www.tahoyashores.com under the "Our Association" menu item.) The main rules for tenants and guests are included in this lease below, but Tenant is obligated to comply with all of the Association's rules even if not stated herein. Tenant agrees to follow the rules, including any rules not shown here if and when Tenant is informed of the rule. The Association is empowered to issue fines against Tenant or against the Owner, and/or suspend Tenant's privileges to use the common areas and common facilities, for violation of the rules by Tenant or by Tenant's guests or for other misconduct which disturbs the quiet enjoyment of the residents within the condominium project. The Governing Documents of the Association provide due process requirements for disciplinary actions. If the Association duly fines Tenant or Owner for Tenant's or Tenant's guest's failure to comply with these provisions, the fines shall be considered additional rents which become immediately due and must be paid to Owner for payment of the fine to the Association. Any fines not paid by Tenant within 7 days of notice to Tenant shall be subject to the Late Payment Fee stated above. Except as prohibited by law, non-compliance with these provisions or non-payment of fines shall be a breach of this lease agreement and may result in termination of the lease and removal of Tenant from premises by process of law. Unpaid fines shall be considered to be unpaid rent.

VERTICAL BLINDS: This unit has vertical blinds on windows and as a room divider. The controls for the blinds allow the vertical vanes to be turned so they are "open" or "closed" to see through or not, and also the vanes can be slid to the side like a drape. It is important that the blinds be in their "open" rotation when they are being slid sideways, otherwise they become tangled and may be damaged. If vanes get stuck and won't rotate or slide easily, they can be unstuck by looking for vanes that are overlapping improperly near the top of the vane at the track. Gently manipulating the vanes will untangle them so they can move properly. If strong force seems to be required, something is tangled. Untangle it first, otherwise force will damage the blinds.

PETS: I declare that I will not bring any pets onto the premises. Guide dogs, signal dogs, service dogs, and equivalent service animals especially trained to assist a tenant with a disability shall not be considered pets if they meet the provisions of California Civil Code section 54.2.

SAFETY, INSURANCE: I agree for my own safety to test the smoke detectors when I move in, by pressing the test button momentarily. I'll replace the battery if a detector fails the test. I won't smoke inside the unit. I understand that the Owner's insurance does not cover my belongings. I agree that Owner will not be held liable for any loss of my belongings for any reason whatsoever . I will promptly report any malfunctions of the unit to Owner's agent. I agree that if the unit is not available or habitable for any reason, my only remedy will be a refund.

DATABASE DISCLOSURE NOTICE: The California Department of Justice, sheriff's departments, police departments serving jurisdictions of 200,000 or more, and many other local law enforcement authorities maintain for public access a databse of the locations of persons required to register pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 290.4 of the Penal Code. The database is updated on a quarterly basis and a source of information about the presence of these individuals in any neighborhood. The Department of Justice also maintains a Sex Offender Identification Line through which inquiries about individuals may be made. This is a "900" telephone service. Callers must have specific information about individuals they are checking. Information regarding neighborhoods is not available through the "900" telephone service. Additional information about sex offenders may be displayed on the Internet at http://www.meganslaw.ca.gov.

SPA AND POOL: The outdoor spa will be kept operating throughout the year in the discretion of the condominium owners' association, but without a guarantee; that is, if a spa/pool malfunction or severe weather condition prevents use of the spa or pool, no refund or rent reduction will be made. I will follow the posted instructions for spa and swimming pool use. Children will not use the spa or pool without the direct continouous supervision of an adult. No one will use the spa while intoxicated. When not in use, the pool gate should be latched for child safety.

EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION: In case of medical or similar emergency, Owner or Agent may notify the following person(s):

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS: The email messages sent between Tenant and Owners or Owners' agent contain additional important information about this unit and this lease. Tenant should bring a copy of this lease and of the Reservation Confirmation for reference at the unit.

I agree to have fun and enjoy my stay here and to tell my friends how nice it was. :-)
