In compliance with Oregon Revised Code §90.400: (1) (a) If there is a material breach by the tenant with the Lease agreement, the landlord may deliver a written notice to the tenant terminating the Lease for cause as provided in this subsection. The notice shall specify the acts and omissions constituting the breach and shall state that the Lease agreement will terminate upon a date not less than 30 days after delivery of the notice. If the breach is remediable by repairs, payment of damages, payment of a late charge or utility or service charge, change in conduct or otherwise, the notice shall also state that the tenant can avoid termination by remedying the breach within 14 days. (b) If the breach is not remedied in 14 days, the Lease agreement shall terminate as provided in the notice subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) below. (c) If the tenant adequately remedies the breach before the date for remedying the breach as specified in the notice, the Lease agreement shall not terminate. (d) If substantially the same act or omission that constituted a prior breach of which notice was given pursuant to paragraph (a) above, recurs within six months after the date specified in that notice as the date for remedying the prior breach, the landlord may terminate the Lease agreement upon at least 10 days' written notice specifying the breach and the date of termination of the Lease agreement. (2) The landlord may immediately terminate the Lease agreement for nonpayment of rent and take possession of the dwelling unit after written notice, as follows: Landlord shall deliver to the tenant at least 72 hours' written notice of nonpayment and the landlord's intention to terminate the Lease agreement if the rent is not paid within that period. The landlord shall give this notice no sooner than on the eighth day of the Lease period, including the first day the rent is due. The notice shall specify the date and time representing the end of the notice period, by which the tenant must pay the rent to cure the nonpayment of rent, or else suffer termination of the lease. (3) Except as provided in paragraph (4) below, the landlord, after at least 24 hours' written notice specifying the acts and omissions constituting the cause and specifying the date and time of the termination, may immediately terminate the Lease agreement and take possession, if: (a) The tenant, someone in the tenant's control or the tenant's pet seriously threatens immediately to inflict personal injury, or inflicts any substantial personal injury, upon the landlord, the landlord's agent or other tenants; (b) The tenant, someone in the tenant's control, or the tenant's pet inflicts any substantial personal injury upon a neighbor living in Residential Lease Agreement, Page 2 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form OR-864LT the immediate vicinity of the premises or upon a person other than the tenant on the premises with permission of the landlord or another tenant; (c) The tenant or someone in the tenant's control intentionally inflicts any substantial damage to the premises or the tenant's pet inflicts substantial damage to the premises on more than one occasion; (d) The tenant has vacated the premises, the person in possession is holding contrary to a written Lease agreement that prohibits subleasing the premises to another or allowing another person to occupy the premises without the written permission of the landlord, and the landlord has not knowingly accepted rent from the person in possession; or (e) The tenant, someone in the tenant's control or the tenant's pet commits any act that is outrageous in the extreme, on the premises or in the immediate vicinity of the premises. An act that is “outrageous in the extreme” is an act not described in paragraphs (a) to (c) of this subsection, but is similar in degree and is one that a reasonable person in that community would consider to be so offensive as to warrant termination of the Lease within 24 hours, considering the seriousness of the act or the risk to others. Such an act is more extreme or serious than an act that warrants a 30-day termination under subsection (1) of this section. An act that is “outrageous in the extreme” includes, but is not limited to, the following acts by a person: (A) Prostitution or promotion of prostitution, as described in ORS 167.007 and 167.012; (B) Manufacture or delivery of a controlled substance, as described in ORS 475.005 but not including delivery as described in ORS 475.992(2)(b); (C) Intimidation, as described in ORS 166.155 and 166.165; or (D) Burglary as described in ORS 164.215 and 164.225. (4) If the cause for a termination notice given pursuant to subsection (3)(a), (b), (c) or (e) of this section is based upon the acts of the tenant's pet, the tenant may cure the cause and avoid termination of the Lease by removing the pet from the premises prior to the end of the notice period. The notice shall describe the right of the tenant to cure the cause. If the tenant returns the pet to the premises at any time after having cured the violation, the landlord, after at least 24 hours' written notice specifying the subsequent presence of the offending pet, may terminate the Lease agreement and take possession. The tenant shall not have a right to cure this subsequent violation. (5) Someone is in the tenant's control, as that phrase is used in paragraph (3) above, when that person enters or remains on the premises with the tenant's permission or consent after the tenant reasonably knows or should know of that person's act or likelihood to commit any act of the type described in subsection (3)(a), (b), (c) and (e) of this section. (6) The landlord's 24 hours' written notice given under subsection (3)(d) of this section shall not be construed as an admission by the landlord that the individual occupying the premises is a lessee or sub- lessee of the landlord. (7) With regard to “acts outrageous in the extreme” as described in subsection (3)(e) of this section, an act can be proven to be outrageous in the extreme even if it is one that does not violate a criminal statute. In addition, notwithstanding the reference in paragraph (3) above, to existing criminal statutes, the landlord's standard of proof in an action for possession under this paragraph remains the civil standard, proof by a preponderance of the evidence. (8) If a good faith effort by a landlord to terminate a Lease pursuant to subsection (3)(e) of this section and to recover possession of the Lease unit fails by decision of the court, the landlord shall not be found in violation of any state statute or local ordinance requiring the landlord to remove that tenant upon threat of fine, abatement or forfeiture as long as the landlord continues to make a good faith effort to terminate the Lease. (9) If a tenant living for less than two years in drug and alcohol free housing uses, possesses or shares alcohol, illegal drugs, controlled substances or prescription drugs without a medical prescription, the landlord may deliver a written notice to the tenant terminating the Lease for cause as provided in this subsection. The notice shall specify the acts constituting the drug or alcohol violation and shall state that the Lease agreement will terminate in not less than 48 hours after delivery of the notice, at a specified date and time. The notice shall also state that the tenant can cure the drug or alcohol violation by a change in conduct or otherwise within 24 Residential Lease Agreement, Page 3 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form OR-864LT hours after delivery of the notice. If the tenant cures the violation within the 24-hour period, the Lease agreement shall not terminate. If the tenant does not cure the violation within the 24-hour period, the Lease agreement shall terminate as provided in the notice. If substantially the same act that constituted a prior drug or alcohol violation of which notice was given reoccurs within six months, the landlord may terminate the Lease agreement upon at least 24 hours' written notice specifying the violation and the date and time of termination of the Lease agreement. The tenant shall not have a right to cure this subsequent violation. 7. DELIVERY OF NOTICES: Any giving of notice under this Lease or applicable Oregon law shall be made by either: (a) personal delivery to the landlord or tenant; or (b) first class mail to the landlord or tenant. If notice is served by mail, the minimum period for compliance or termination of tenancy, as appropriate, shall be extended by three days, and the notice shall include the extension in the periods provided. 8. UTILITIES: Tenant will provide and pay for the following utilities (indicate those that apply): [ ] Electric, [ ] Gas, [ ] Telephone, [ ] Cable Television, [ ] Water, [ ] Garbage pick-up.

Tenant shall be responsible for having same utilities disconnected on the day Tenant delivers the leased premises back unto Landlord upon termination or expiration of this Lease. 9. NOTICE OF INTENT TO SURRENDER: Any other provision of this lease to the contrary notwithstanding, at least thirty (30) days prior to the normal expiration of the term of this Lease as noted under the heading TERM OF LEASE above, Tenant shall give written notice to Landlord of Tenant’s intention to surrender the residence at the expiration of the Lease term. If said written notice is not timely given, the Tenant shall become a month-to- month tenant as defined by applicable Oregon law, and all provisions of this Lease will remain in full force and effect, unless this Lease is extended or renewed for a specific term by written agreement of Landlord and Tenant. If Tenant becomes a month-to-month tenant in the manner described above, Tenant must give a thirty (30) day written notice to the Landlord of Tenant’s intention to surrender the residence. At any time during a month-to-month Lease Landlord may terminate the month-to-month Lease by serving Tenant with a written notice of termination, or by any other means allowed by applicable Oregon law. Upon termination, Tenant shall vacate the premises and deliver same unto Landlord on or before the expiration of the period of notice. 10.

IT IS PROVIDED BY USLF TO AID THE LANDLORD IN COMPLYING WITH FEDERAL LEAD-BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE LAW, FOR DWELLING UNITS BUILT PRIOR TO 1978. IMPORTANT!!! NOTES CONCERNING LEAD-PAINT DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS Introduction: If the rental dwelling unit was constructed PRIOR TO 1978, federal law REQUIRES a Lead- Based Paint Disclosure Form to be attached to the lease, completed and signed by the lessor/landlord and lessee/tenant. If the rental dwelling was constructed in 1978 or later, this form is not required. If in doubt about the timing of construction, use the disclosure form. Whenever the form is used, the landlord must also give the tenant the EPA lead-based paint pamphlet discussed below. Landlords must retain a copy of the signed disclosure form for no less than three years from the date the lease begins. Background: To protect families from exposure to lead from paint, dust, and soil, Congress passed the Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of 1992. HUD and EPA require the disclosure of known information on lead-based paint and related hazards before the lease of most housing built before 1978. Requirements: Before the lease is signed and agreed to, landlords must fully comply with lead-paint disclosure law. Compliance is accomplished by: (1) Fully completing and delivering to the tenants, as an attachment to the lease, the LEAD-BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE form (the lessees/renters also initial and sign this form), and (2) Giving the tenants the EPA pamphlet entitled "Protect Your Family From Lead In Your Home."
