deductions will be subject to mydeposits guidelines including use of the free and independent Alternative Dispute
Resolution service where its use has been agreed by the Tenant and Landlord.
8.7. The Tenant shall not be entitled to withhold the payment of any instalment of Rent or any other monies
payable under this agreement on the ground that the Landlord, or OpenRent, holds the Cash Deposit or any part
of it.
8.8. If the Cash Deposit is insufficient the Tenant shall pay to the Landlord such additional sums as required to
cover all costs, charges and expenses properly due within a period of 14 days from the end of the tenancy.
8.9. If either party is not contactable or otherwise not responsive at the end of the tenancy, the other party
should notify the Deposit scheme administrator so that the Cash Deposit may be treated in accordance with the
terms of the scheme.
8.10. This clause 8.10 applies only if the Tenant chooses to purchase a Deposit Replacement. In this situation:
Any stipulations relating specifically to a Cash Deposit or Prescribed Information within this agreement
should be disregarded. All other provisions of this agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

Replacement from Reposit.

obligations in the tenancy agreement including but not limited to those relating to the removal of items

Interrupting or Ending this Agreement
The following clauses set out the ways in which this agreement may be brought to an end by either party. In
addition, these clauses set out the procedures which the Tenant or Landlord shall use when the tenancy is
brought to an end.

Early termination by the Landlord

12.1. If and whenever during the Term:
the Rent or any part of it is in arrears for 14 days after it has become due (whether legally demanded or
not), or
there is a breach of any of the obligations or agreements on the part of the Tenant, or
the Tenant becomes bankrupt or insolvent or enters into a voluntary arrangement with its creditors; or
any of the Grounds 2, 7 (in England only), 7A, 7B (in England only), 8, 10-15 and 17 set out in Schedule
2 of the Housing Act 1988 apply
the Landlord may re-enter upon the Premises or any part in the name of the whole resuming possession on the
furniture and effects and immediately thereon the tenancy shall terminate, but without prejudice to the other
rights and remedies of the Landlord. The Landlord's rights under this clause are subject to the restrictions of the
Protection From Eviction Act 1977 and the Housing Act 1988 and the Landlord will not whilst the Tenant is
residing in the Premises physically retake possession without first obtaining a Court Order.

Notice to end the tenancy at or after the end of the Initial Term
12.2. If either party wishes to end the tenancy on or after the final day of the Initial Term, they may give notice
in writing to the other as follows:
The Landlord must give notice of no less than two months, such notice to expire any time on or after the
final day of the Initial Term. A notice served by the Landlord under section 21 of the Housing Act 1988
shall be sufficient notice under this clause.
The Tenant must give notice of no less than one month, such notice to expire the day before a Rent
Payment Day or on the final day of the Initial Term.
12.3. If neither party serves a valid notice to terminate the tenancy at the end of the Initial Term, the parties
agree that at the end of the Initial Term the tenancy will continue as a contractual periodic tenancy on a monthly
basis. The parties agree that clause 12.3 acts irregardless of whether multiple months rent was paid in advance
or not.

Uninhabitability
12.4. If at any time the Premises are rendered uninhabitable by an event or events which are not the result of
negligence or breach of contract by either party then, the choice being at the Landlord's sole discretion, either:
the Rent will cease to be payable by the Tenant until the Premises are made habitable and the Landlord will
be under no obligation to provide alternative accommodation; or
the Rent will continue to be payable and the Landlord will be obligated to provide suitable alternative
accommodation to the Tenant.
12.5. If following an event described above, in the reasonable opinion of an appropriate expert the Premises
cannot be made habitable within one month then either party may give one month's notice to terminate this
agreement following which it will end and no further obligations under it will be performable by either party save
that either party may pursue the other for breaches of this agreement which pre-date said termination.

13/19
Mutual Break Clause
12.6. The Initial Term of this tenancy agreement may be terminated by either party giving the other at least two
months' notice in writing, such notice not to expire until at least 6 months after the start of the Term. A notice
served by the Landlord under section 21 of the Housing Act 1988 shall be sufficient notice under this clause.
The Tenant is obliged to pay rent up to and including the termination date, so if the tenancy is terminated on a
date which is not the last day of a rental period, the rent due for any incomplete rental periods will be
apportioned accordingly.

Effect of Notices to terminate the tenancy

12.7. On the expiry of a notice to terminate the tenancy under clause 12.2 or 12.6 the tenancy shall end and no
further obligations shall be performed under the tenancy save that either party may pursue the other for any
breach of this agreement occurring before the expiry of the notice.

Custom Clauses
Custom Clause 1. This Clause outlines the Tenant's responsibility for Minor Repairs and Call Out Charges.
Minor Repairs: The Tenant shall be responsible for promptly addressing and covering the cost of any minor
repairs to the Premises. Minor repairs are defined as those that incur a total expense of less than £75 (GBP).
The Tenant shall promptly notify the Landlord of the need for such minor repairs and shall arrange for the
necessary repairs to be carried out by a qualified tradesperson. Call Out Charges: In the event that a qualified
tradesperson is called to the property by the Tenant to address a repair issue, the Tenant shall be responsible
for covering any associated call out charges. If the Landlord determines that the reason for the repair was not
due to the actions of the Tenant, the Landlord will assume responsibility for this cost. Landlord's Responsibility
for Non-Minor Repairs: If, upon inspection by a qualified tradesperson, it is determined that the repair required
exceeds the threshold of a minor repair (i.e., estimated cost exceeds £75), the Landlord shall assume
responsibility for the call out charge incurred in relation to the non-minor repair (unless the repair is necessary
because of the actions of the Tenant). Notification: The Tenant agrees to promptly inform the Landlord in writing
of any repair issues, regardless of whether they are minor or non-minor, and provide a description of the issue.
The Tenant shall also inform the Landlord of any call out charges incurred. Cooperation: The Tenant shall
cooperate with the Landlord in promptly scheduling repairs, allowing access to the property, and facilitating the
work of qualified tradespeople. Documentation: The Tenant shall retain copies of invoices, receipts, and other
relevant documentation related to minor repairs and call out charges for a period of at least during the tenancy
and shall provide copies of such documentation to the Landlord upon request. Compliance: Both the Tenant and
the Landlord shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding repairs and maintenance of the
Premises.
Custom Clause 2. This Clause relates to the Permitted Use and Replacement of Appliances. Permitted Use of
Appliances: The Landlord provides the Tenant with the following appliances in the leased property: dishwasher,
washer-dryer, oven, hob, refrigerator, and microwave (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Appliances"). The
Tenant is granted permission to use these Appliances for the duration of the tenancy, provided such use is in
accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, as well as the terms of this agreement. Full Working
Condition: The Landlord asserts that, at the commencement of the tenancy, all Appliances are in full working
condition and suitable for their intended use. Responsibility for Appliance Damage: The Tenant shall be
responsible for any damage to the Appliances caused by their misuse, negligence, or willful acts. In such
cases, the Tenant shall promptly notify the Landlord of the damage. Landlord's Decision on Replacement: If an
Appliance becomes non-functional or is damaged during the tenancy, the Landlord shall make a determination
as to whether the damage was caused by the Tenant's actions or as a result of normal wear and tear.
Replacement Decision: Damage by Tenant: If the Landlord determines that the damage to an Appliance was
caused by the Tenant's actions or negligence, the Tenant will be responsible for repairing or replacing the
Appliance (whichever the Landlord deems most suitable). Normal Wear and Tear: If the damage to an Appliance
is determined to be the result of normal wear and tear, after consultation with the Tenant, the Landlord shall
determine whether to repair or replace the Appliance or to allow the Tenant to obtain their own replacement
Appliance. Tenant's Option to Dispose and Replace: If the Landlord decides not to replace a damaged
Appliance or if the Tenant wishes to have their own Appliance, the Tenant may, with the Landlord's prior written
consent, dispose of the non-functional Appliance. The Tenant may then purchase and install their own
replacement Appliance at their own expense. The new Appliance will belong to the Tenant and may be removed
by the Tenant upon the termination of the tenancy. Consent for Replacement: The Tenant shall seek the
Landlord's written consent before disposing of an Appliance and installing a replacement. Maintenance: The

Tenant agrees to properly maintain and clean the Appliances during the tenancy, following any provided
manufacturer instructions or guidelines.
Custom Clause 3. This clause relates to Ceiling Fan Replacement and Maintenance Ceiling Fans in the
Property: The Landlord acknowledges that the property is currently equipped with ceiling fans, which are fully
working and provided for the comfort and use of the Tenant. Maintenance Responsibility: The Tenant shall be
responsible for the proper use and maintenance of the ceiling fans during the tenancy. This includes regular
cleaning and ensuring that the fans are operated in accordance with manufacturer instructions. (This includes
but is not limited to them not being continuously used without breaks) Ceiling Fan Repairs: In the event that a
ceiling fan becomes non-functional or requires repair during the tenancy, the Tenant shall promptly notify the
Landlord of the issue. Landlord's Determination on Replacement: The Landlord shall make a determination as to
whether a non-functional ceiling fan should be replaced and, if so, with what type of fixture. This decision will, in
most cases, be dependent on whether the ceiling fan was damaged by the Tenant or has become non-functional
due to normal wear and tear. Replacement Options: Damage by Tenant: If the Landlord determines that the
ceiling fan was damaged due to the Tenant's actions or negligence, the Tenant will be responsible for replacing
them with a new ceiling fan approved by the Landlord. Normal Wear and Tear: If the ceiling fan becomes non-
functional due to normal wear and tear, the Landlord may choose to: Repair the ceiling fan at the Landlord's
expense, or Replace the ceiling fan with a different light fixture at the Landlord's expense. Notification and
Consent: The Tenant shall promptly notify the Landlord of any ceiling fan issues and shall seek the Landlord's
written consent before making any modifications or replacements. Proper Use: The Tenant shall ensure that the
ceiling fans are used only for their intended purpose and in accordance with manufacturer guidelines.
