All Lessees (hereinafter referred to collectively as “Tenant”), are jointly, severally and individually bound by, and liable under, the terms and conditions of this Lease. For the valuable consideration described below, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Landlord and Tenant do hereby covenant, contract and agree as follows: 1. GRANT OF LEASE: Landlord does hereby lease unto Tenant, and Tenant does hereby rent from Landlord, solely for use as a personal residence, excluding all other uses, the personal residence located in __________________ County, South Carolina, with address of: __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ ______________________________, including the following items of personal property: __________________________________________ ______ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ ____________. 2. NATURE OF OCCUPANCY: As a special consideration and inducement for the granting of this Lease by the Landlord to the Tenant, the personal residence described above shall be used and occupied only by the members of the Tenant’s family or others whose names and ages are set forth below: __________________________________________ ______ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________. 3. TERM OF LEASE: This Lease shall commence on the ____ day of ___________________, 20____, and extend until its expiration on the ____ day of _________________, 20____, unless renewed or extended pursuant to the terms herein. 4. SECURITY DEPOSIT: Upon execution of this Lease, Tenant shall deposit the sum of $___________ to be held by Landlord as a security deposit for reasonable cleaning of, and repair of damages to, the premises upon the expiration or termination of this Lease, or other reasonable damages resulting from a default by Tenant. Tenant shall be liable to Landlord for all damages to the leased premises upon the termination of this Lease, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Tenant is not entitled to interest on the security deposit. Tenant may not apply the security deposit to any rent due under this Lease. If Landlord sells or assigns the leased premises, Landlord shall have the right to transfer Tenant’s security deposit to the new owner or assignee to hold under this Lease, and upon so doing Landlord shall be released from all liability to Tenant for return of said security deposit. In compliance with South Carolina Code § 27-40- 410: Upon termination of the Lease, property or money held by the landlord as security must be returned less amounts withheld by the landlord for accrued rent and damages which the landlord has suffered by reason of the tenant's noncompliance with the Lease. Any deduction from the security/rental deposit must be itemized by the landlord in a written notice to the tenant together with the amount due, if any, within thirty days after termination of the Lease and delivery of possession and demand by the tenant, whichever is later. The tenant shall provide the landlord in writing with a forwarding address or new address to which the written notice and amount due from the landlord may be sent. If the tenant fails to provide the landlord with the forwarding or new address, the tenant is not entitled to damages, provided the landlord (1) had no notice of the tenant's whereabouts and (2) mailed the written notice and amount due, if any, to the tenant's last known address. The foregoing does not preclude the landlord or tenant from recovering other damages to which he may be entitled under this chapter or otherwise. 5. RENT PAYMENTS: Tenant agrees to pay rent unto the Landlord during the term of this Lease in equal monthly installments of $_____________, said installment for each month being due and payable on or before the 1st day of the month, the first full rent payment under this Lease being due on the 1st day of ____________________, 20____. Residential Lease Agreement, Page 1 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT Tenant agrees that if rent is not paid in full on or before the _____ day of the month, Tenant will pay a late charge of $________ as allowed by applicable South Carolina law.

Rent payments shall be made payable to: __________________________________________ ______, and mailed or delivered to the following address: __________________________________________ __________________________________________ ____________ All notices from Tenant to Landlord under this Lease and applicable South Carolina law shall be delivered to the above address. Tenant agrees that rent monies will not be considered paid until Landlord or Landlord’s agent receives the rent monies, either by mail or by delivery to the above address. Tenant placing rent monies in the mail is not sufficient for rent to be considered paid, and rent will be considered unpaid until actual receipt thereof. If there are multiple Tenants signed to this Lease, all such Tenants are jointly, severally and individually bound by, and liable under, the terms and conditions of this Lease. A judgment entered against one Tenant shall be no bar to an action against other Tenants. 6. CONSEQUENCES OF BREACH BY TENANT: If Tenant, by any act or omission, or by the act or omission of any of Tenant’s family or invitees, licensees, and/or guests, violates any of the terms or conditions of this Lease or any other documents made a part hereof by reference or attachment, Tenant shall be considered in breach of this Lease (breach by one tenant shall be considered breach by all tenants where Tenant is more than one person). In compliance with South Carolina Code § 27-40- 710 et seq.: If there is a breach by the tenant with the Lease agreement ( other than nonpayment of rent- see below ) or a breach materially affecting health and safety or the physical condition of the property, the landlord may deliver a written notice to the tenant specifying the acts and omissions constituting the breach and that the Lease agreement will terminate upon a date not less than fourteen (14) days after receipt of the notice, if the breach is not remedied in fourteen (14) days. The Lease agreement terminates as provided in the notice except that: (1) if the breach is remediable by repairs or otherwise and the tenant adequately remedies the breach before the date specified in the notice, or (2) if the remedy cannot be completed within fourteen (14) days, but is commenced within the fourteen-day period and is pursued in good faith to completion within a reasonable time, the Lease agreement may not terminate by reason of the breach. IF TENANT DOES NOT PAY RENT ON TIME: This is your statutory notice. If you do not pay your rent within five days of the due date, the landlord can start to have you evicted. You will get no other notice as long as you live in this rental unit. The landlord is not required to furnish any separate or additional written notice to the tenant in order to commence eviction proceedings for nonpayment of rent even after the original term of the Lease agreement has expired. If there is breach by the tenant materially affecting health and safety that can be remedied by repair, replacement of a damaged item, or cleaning, and the tenant fails to comply as promptly as conditions require in case of emergency or within fourteen (14) days after written notice by the landlord specifying the breach and requesting that the tenant remedy it within that period of time, the landlord may enter the dwelling unit and cause the work to be done in a workmanlike manner and the tenant shall reimburse the landlord for the cost and, in addition, the landlord shall have the remedies available under this chapter. If there is breach by the tenant materially affecting health and safety that cannot be remedied by repair, or if landlord does not elect to so remedy, and the tenant fails to comply as promptly as conditions require in case of emergency, or within fourteen days after written notice by the landlord if it is not an emergency, specifying the breach and requesting that the tenant remedy within that period of time, the landlord may terminate the Lease agreement. Residential Lease Agreement, Page 2 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT Tenant expressly agrees and understands that upon Landlord’s termination of this Lease, the entire remaining balance of unpaid rent for the remaining term of this Lease shall ACCELERATE , whereby the entire sum shall become immediately due, payable, and collectable. Landlord may hold the portion of Tenant’s security deposit remaining after reasonable cleaning and repairs as a partial offset to satisfaction of the accelerated rent. 7. DELIVERY OF NOTICES: Any giving of notice under this Lease or applicable South Carolina law shall be made by Tenant in writing and delivered to the address noted above for the payment of rent, either by hand delivery or by mail. Certified or registered mail is recommended. Delivery by mail shall not be considered complete until actual receipt by Landlord or Landlord’s agent. Any notices from Landlord to Tenant shall be in writing and shall be deemed sufficiently served upon Tenant when deposited in the mail addressed to the leased premises, or addressed to Tenant’s last known post office address, or hand delivered, or placed in Tenant’s mailbox. If Tenant is more than one person, then notice to one shall be sufficient as notice to all. 8. UTILITIES: Tenant will provide and pay for the following utilities (indicate those that apply): [ ] Electric, [ ] Gas, [ ] Telephone, [ ] Cable Television, [ ] Water, [ ] Garbage pick-up. Landlord 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 contacting and arranging for any utility service not provided by the Landlord, and for any utilities not listed above. 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 South Carolina 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 tenancy 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 South Carolina law. Upon termination, Tenant shall vacate the premises and deliver same unto Landlord on or before the expiration of the period of notice. 10. OBLIGATIONS AND DUTIES OF LANDLORD: In compliance with South Carolina Code § 27-40- 440, Landlord shall: 1) comply with the requirements of applicable building and housing codes materially affecting health and safety; (2) make all repairs and do whatever is reasonably necessary to put and keep the premises in a fit and habitable condition; (3) keep all common areas of the premises in a reasonably safe condition, and, for premises containing more than four dwelling units, keep in a reasonably clean condition; (4) make available running water and reasonable amounts of hot water at all times and reasonable heat except where the building that includes the dwelling unit is not required by law to be equipped for that purpose, or the dwelling unit is so constructed that heat or hot water is generated by an installation within the exclusive control of the tenant and supplied by a direct public utility connection; (5) maintain in reasonably good and safe working order and condition all electrical, gas, plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and other facilities and appliances, including elevators, supplied or required to be supplied by him. Appliances present in the dwelling unit are presumed to be supplied by the landlord unless specifically excluded by the Lease agreement. No appliances or facilities necessary to the provision of essential services may be excluded. 11. OBLIGATIONS AND DUTIES OF TENANT: Residential Lease Agreement, Page 3 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT In compliance with South Carolina Code § §27-40- 510, Tenant shall: (1) comply with all obligations primarily imposed upon tenants by applicable provisions of building and housing codes materially affecting health and safety; (2) keep the dwelling unit and that part of the premises that he uses reasonably safe and reasonably clean; (3) dispose from his dwelling unit all ashes, garbage, rubbish, and other waste in a reasonably clean and safe manner; (4) keep all plumbing fixtures in the dwelling unit or used by the tenant reasonably clean; (5) use in a reasonable manner all electrical, plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilating, air- conditioning, and other facilities and appliances including elevators in the premises; (6) not deliberately or negligently destroy, deface, damage, impair, or remove any part of the premises or knowingly permit any person to do so who is on the premises with the tenant's permission or who is allowed access to the premises by the tenant; (7) conduct himself and require other persons on the premises with the tenant's permission or who are allowed access to the premises by the tenant to conduct themselves in a manner that will not disturb other tenant's peaceful enjoyment of the premises; (8) comply with the lease and rules and regulations. Tenant agrees that any violation of these provisions shall be considered a breach of this Lease. 12. NO ASSIGNMENT: Tenant expressly agrees that the leased premises nor any portion thereof shall not be assigned or sub-let by Tenant without the prior written consent of Landlord. 13. TENANT INSURANCE: Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant, Tenant’s family or Tenant’s invitees, licensees, and/or guests for damages not proximately caused by Landlord or Landlord’s agents. Landlord will not compensate Tenant or anyone else for damages proximately caused by any other source whatsoever, or by Acts of God, and Tenant is therefore strongly encouraged to independently purchase insurance to protect Tenant, Tenant’s family, Tenant’s invitees, licensees, and/or guests, and all personal property on the leased premises and/or in any common areas from any and all damages. 14. CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES: Tenant hereby acknowledges that Tenant has examined the leased premises prior to the signing of this Lease, or knowingly waived said examination. Tenant acknowledges that Tenant has not relied on any representations made by Landlord or Landlord’s agents regarding the condition of the leased premises and that Tenant takes premises in its AS-IS condition with no express or implied warranties or representations beyond those contained herein or required by applicable South Carolina law. Tenant agrees not to damage the premises through any act or omission, and to be responsible for any damages sustained through the acts or omissions of Tenant, Tenant’s family or Tenant’s invitees, licensees, and/or guests. If such damages are incurred, Tenant is required to pay for any resulting repairs at the same time and in addition to the next month’s rent payment, with consequences for non-payment identical to those for non-payment of rent described herein. At the expiration or termination of the Lease, Tenant shall return the leased premises in as good condition as when taken by Tenant at the commencement of the lease, with only normal wear- and-tear excepted. Tenant shall have the right to remove from the premises Tenant’s fixtures placed thereon by Tenant at his expense, provided, however, that Tenant in effecting removal, shall restore the leased premises to as good, safe, sound, orderly and sightly condition as before the addition of Tenant’s fixture. Failing this, Tenant shall be obligated to pay for repairs as stated above. 15. ALTERATIONS: Tenant shall make no alterations, decorations, additions, or improvements to the leased premises without first obtaining the express written consent of Landlord. Any of the above-described work shall become part of the dwelling. If carried out by independent contractors, said contractors must be approved by Landlord. Tenant shall not contract for work to be done without first placing monies sufficient to satisfy the contract price in an escrow account approved by Landlord. All work shall be done at such times and in such manner as Landlord may designate. If a construction or mechanic’s lien is placed on the leased premises as a result of the work, such shall be satisfied by Tenant within ten (10) days thereafter at Tenant’s sole expense. Tenant shall be considered in breach of this Lease upon failure to satisfy said lien. 16. NO ILLEGAL USE: Tenant shall not perpetrate, allow or suffer any acts or omissions contrary to law or ordinance to be carried out upon the leased premises or in any common area. Upon Residential Lease Agreement, Page 4 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT obtaining actual knowledge of any illegal acts or omissions upon the leased premises, Tenant agrees to immediately inform Landlord and the appropriate authorities. Tenant shall bear responsibility for any and all illegal acts or omissions upon the leased premises and shall be considered in breach of this Lease upon conviction of Tenant or any of Tenant’s family or invitees, licensees, and/or guests for any illegal act or omission upon the leased premises- whether known or unknown to Tenant. 17. NOTICE OF INJURIES: In the event of any significant injury or damage to Tenant, Tenant’s family, or Tenant’s invitees, licensees, and/or guests, or any personal property, suffered in the leased premises or in any common area, written notice of same shall be provided by Tenant to Landlord at the address designated for delivery of notices (identical to address for payment of rent) as soon as possible but not later than five (5) days after said injury or damage. Failure to provide such notice shall constitute a breach of this Lease. 18. LANDLORD’S RIGHT TO MORTGAGE: Tenant agrees to accept the premises subject to and subordinate to any existing or future mortgage or other lien, and Landlord reserves the right to subject premises to same. Tenant agrees to and hereby irrevocably grants Landlord power of attorney for Tenant for the sole purpose of executing and delivering in the name of the Tenant any document(s) related to the Landlord’s right to subject the premises to a mortgage or other lien. 19. DELAY IN REPAIRS: Tenant agrees that if any repairs to be made by Landlord are delayed by reasons beyond Landlords control, there shall be no effect on the obligations of Tenant under this Lease. 20. ABANDONMENT: Abandonment shall be defined as the absence of the Tenant from the leased premises for a period of seven (7) or more consecutive days while rent or any owing monies remain unpaid- whereupon Tenant will be considered in breach of this Lease. This definition is subordinate to, and shall not in any way impair, the rights and remedies of Landlord under this Lease or applicable South Carolina law, except that in case of abandonment, Landlord or Landlord’s agents may immediately or any time thereafter enter and re-take the leased premises as provided by applicable South Carolina law, and terminate this Lease without notice to Tenant. 21. NOTICE OF ABSENCE FROM PREMISES: If Tenant is to be absent from the leased premises for seven (7) or more consecutive days, written notice of such should be served upon Landlord. If such absences are to be customary or frequent, the expected frequency and duration of absence should be summarily noted here: _____________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ ____________ Tenant expressly agrees and understands that absence from the premises, with or without notice, in no way obviates the requirement to pay rent and other monies as stated herein, or the consequences of failure to timely pay same. 22. POSSESSION OF PREMISES: Tenant shall not be entitled to possession of the premises designated for lease until the security deposit and first month’s rent (or prorated portion thereof), less any applicable promotional discount, is paid in full and the premises designated for lease is vacated by the prior tenant. 23. DELAY OF POSSESSION: Tenant expressly agrees that if by reason of the premises being unready for occupancy, or by reason of the previous tenant or occupant of the dwelling holding over, or as a result of any other cause whatsoever, Tenant is unable to enter and occupy the premises, Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant in damages, but shall abate the rent for the period in which the Tenant is unable to occupy the premises. 24. MATERIALITY OF APPLICATION TO RENT: All representations made by Tenant(s) on the Application to Rent (or like-titled document) are material to the grant of this Lease, and the Lease is granted only on condition of the truthfulness and accuracy of said representations. If a failure to disclose or lack of truthfulness is discovered on said Application, Landlord may deem Tenant to be in breach of this Lease. 25. MODIFICATION OF THIS LEASE: Any modification of this lease shall not be binding upon Landlord unless in writing and signed by Landlord or Landlord’s authorized agent. No oral representation shall be effective to modify this Lease. If, as per the terms of this paragraph, any provision of this lease is newly added, modified, or stricken out, the remainder of this Lease shall remain in full force and effect. 26. REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE: The remedies and rights contained in and conveyed by this Lease are cumulative, and are not exclusive of other rights, remedies and benefits allowed by applicable South Carolina law. Residential Lease Agreement, Page 5 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT 27. SEVERABILITY: If any provision herein, or any portion thereof, is rendered invalid by operation of law, judgment, or court order, the remaining provisions and/or portions of provisions shall remain valid and enforceable and shall be construed to so remain. 28. NO WAIVER: The failure of Landlord to insist upon the strict performance of the terms, covenants, and agreements herein shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of Landlord's right thereafter to enforce any such term, covenant, or condition, but the same shall continue in full force and effect. No act or omission of Landlord shall be considered a waiver of any of the terms or conditions of this Lease, nor excuse any conduct contrary to the terms and conditions of this Lease, nor be considered to create a pattern of conduct between the Landlord and Tenant upon which Tenant may rely upon if contrary to the terms and conditions of this Lease. 29. ATTORNEY FEES: In the event that Landlord employees an attorney to collect any rents or other charges due hereunder by Tenant or to enforce any of Tenant's covenants herein or to protect the interest of the Landlord hereunder, Tenant agrees to pay a reasonable attorney's fee and all expenses and costs incurred thereby. 30. HEIRS AND ASSIGNS: It is agreed and understood that all covenants of this lease shall succeed to and be binding upon the respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and, except as provided herein, assigns of the parties hereto, but nothing contained herein shall be construed so as to allow the Tenant to transfer or assign this lease in violation of any term hereof. 31. DESTRUCTION OF PREMISES: In the event the leased premises shall be destroyed or rendered totally untenable by fire, windstorm, or any other cause beyond the control of Landlord, then this Lease shall cease and terminate as of the date of such destruction, and the rent shall then be accounted for between Landlord and Tenant up to the time of such damage or destruction of said premises as if being prorated as of that date. In the event the leased premises are damaged by fire, windstorm or other cause beyond the control of Landlord so as to render the same partially untenable, but repairable within a reasonable time, then this lease shall remain in force and effect and the Landlord shall, within said reasonable time, restore said premises to substantially the condition the premises were in prior to said damage, and there shall be an abatement in rent in proportion to the relationship the damaged portion of the leased premises bears to the whole of said premises. 32. EMINENT DOMAIN: In the event that the leased premises shall be taken by eminent domain, the rent shall be prorated to the date of taking and this Lease shall terminate on that date. 33. LANDLORD ENTRY AND LIEN: In addition to the rights provided by applicable South Carolina law, Landlord shall have the right to enter the leased premises at all reasonable times for the purpose of inspecting the same and/or showing the same to prospective tenants or purchasers, and to make such reasonable repairs and alterations as may be deemed necessary by Landlord for the preservation of the leased premises or the building and to remove any alterations, additions, fixtures, and any other objects which may be affixed or erected in violation of the terms of this Lease. Landlord shall give reasonable notice of intent to enter premises except in the case of an emergency. Furthermore, Landlord retains a Landlord’s Lien on all personal property placed upon the premises to secure the payment of rent and any damages to the leased premises. 34. GOVERNING LAW: This Lease is governed by the statutory and case law of the State of South Carolina. 35. LEAD-BASED PAINT DISCLOSURE: HOUSING BUILT BEFORE 1978 MAY CONTAIN LEAD-BASED PAINT. LEAD FROM PAINT, PAINT CHIPS, AND DUST CAN POSE HEALTH HAZARDS IF NOT MANAGED PROPERLY. LEAD EXPOSURE IS ESPECIALLY HARMFUL TO YOUNG CHILDREN AND PREGNANT WOMEN. BEFORE RENTING PRE-1978 HOUSING, LESSORS MUST DISCLOSE THE PRESENCE OF KNOWN LEAD-BASED PAINT AND/OR LEAD-BASED PAINT HAZARDS IN THE DWELLING. LEASEES MUST ALSO RECEIVE A FEDERALLY APPROVED PAMPHLET ON LEAD POISONING PREVENTION. Landlord states as follows: [Landlord check one] The leased premises was constructed in 1978 or later. The leased premises was constructed prior to 1978. Landlord has conformed with all federal requirements regarding lead-based paint disclosure including the completion and mutual signing with Tenant and any agents, of the Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Form attached hereto and incorporated Residential Lease Agreement, Page 6 U.S. Legal Forms, Inc. http://www.uslegalforms.com Form SC-864LT into this lease as a part hereof. All associated information required by the Disclosure form (if any) was furnished to Tenant, and Tenant received the EPA pamphlet “ Protect Your Family from Lead in Your Home. ” 36.

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." (See the download link for the pamphlet, below.) Purchase the Disclosure Form: If you need to purchase a Lead-Based Paint Disclosure Form, you can easily do so using USLF. http://www.uslegalforms.com/lead-paint-disclosure-forms.htm Click this link (or copy it into the address window of you internet browser) and select your state.

Click the “Information and Preview” link for more info on the form, and then order the form.
