12. The Tenant may not use the Security Deposit as payment for the Rent without prejudice to

in respect of any sum of rent which is in arrears at the end of the Term.

INSURANCE
15. The Tenant is hereby advised and understands that the personal property of the Tenant is not
insured by the Landlord for either damage or loss, and the Landlord assumes no liability for
any such loss.

ABSENCES
16. The Tenant will inform the Landlord if the Tenant is to be absent from the Property for any
reason for a period of more than twenty-eight (28) days. The Tenant agrees to take such
measures to secure the Property prior to such absence as the Landlord may reasonably

17. If the Tenant no longer occupies the Property as its only principal home (whether or not the
Tenant intends to return) the Landlord may, at its option, end the tenancy by serving a Notice
to Quit that complies with the Act.

18. If the Tenant has abandoned the Property and the Landlord is unsure whether the Tenant
intends to return, the Landlord is entitled to apply for a court order for possession.

19. If the Tenant has abandoned or surrendered the Property and the Landlord feels that the
Property is in an insecure or urgent condition, or that electrical or gas appliances could cause
damage or danger to the Property then the Landlord may enter the Property to carry out
urgent repairs. If the locks have been changed for such urgent security reasons, the Landlord
must attempt to provide notice to the Tenant of the change in locks and how they can get a
new key.

20. If there is implied or actual surrender of the Property by the Tenant, the Landlord may, at its
option, enter the Property by any means without being liable for any prosecution for such
entering, and without becoming liable to the Tenant for damages or for any payment of any
kind whatever, and may, at the Landlord's discretion, as agent for the Tenant, let the Property,
or any part of the Property, for the whole or any part of the then unexpired term, and may
receive and collect all rent payable by virtue of such letting, and, at the Landlord's option,
hold the Tenant liable for any difference between the Rent that would have been payable
under this Agreement during the balance of the unexpired term, if this Agreement had
continued in force, and the net rent for such period realised by the Landlord by means of the
letting. Implied surrender will be deemed if the Tenant has left the keys behind or where the
Tenant has ceased to occupy the Property and clearly does not intend to return.

21. If the Tenant has abandoned or surrendered the Property and the Tenant has left some
belongings on the Property, the Landlord will store the Tenant's possessions with reasonable
care for a reasonable period of time taking into consideration the value of the items and cost
to store them. Once the cost of storage is greater than the value of the items, such items may
be disposed of by the Landlord.

GOVERNING LAW
22. This Agreement will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of England
and the Parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.

SEVERABILITY
23. If there is a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the Act, the Act will prevail
and such provisions of the Agreement will be amended or deleted as necessary in order to
comply with the Act. Further, any provisions that are required by the Act are incorporated into

this Agreement.

24. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement will not affect the validity
or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. Such other provisions remain in full
force and effect.
