previously exposed to or infested with bed bugs, and that no bed bugs will be transported into the Unit by Resident. In the
event that bed bugs are found in the Unit, Resident shall be responsible for: (a) immediately notifying Landlord of any
infestation or presence of bed bugs; (b) washing all clothes, bed sheets, draperies, towels, etc. in extremely hot water; (c)
thoroughly cleaning all luggage, handbags, shoes and clothes; and (d) cooperating with the Landlord’s extermination and other
remediation efforts including immediately disposing of mattresses, seat cushions or other upholstered furniture, if requested by
Landlord. All damages by bed bugs shall be deemed damages exceeding normal wear and tear. In the event there are bed
bugs or other pests in the Unit not caused by the Landlord, Resident agrees to pay Landlord, upon demand, for all bed bug-
related or other pest control treatments, which Resident acknowledges may involve treatment of not only the Unit but also
surrounding units in the Facility, and the replacement of any Furnishings damaged by bed bugs. In no event shall Resident
treat any bed bug infestation independently, and Landlord reserves the sole right to select an exterminator and devise a
treatment plan. In the event that Resident’s representations with respect to the bed bugs are untrue or Resident fails to comply
with any terms of this Section, it shall be an immediate Event of Default under the Contract, and Landlord shall be entitled to
pursue any rights or remedies available under the Contract or applicable law including, but not limited to, terminating the
Resident’s right of possession of the Bedroom and the Unit. In no event shall Landlord be liable to Resident or Resident’s
guests for personal injury, damage or loss of personal property related to pest infestation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Resident have executed this Addendum as of the date and year first above written.

acknowledged, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:
1. Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum shall have the meanings given in the Contract.
2. Personal Liability Insurance. Resident is required to acquire and maintain for the duration of the Contract Term
(and any extension thereof) a personal liability insurance policy covering Resident and Resident’s guests, for personal
injury and property damage caused to third parties (including damage to Landlord’s property) by Resident or Resident’s
guests, in a minimum policy coverage amount of $100,000.00 per occurrence (the “Liability Policy”). Resident shall
provide written proof of the Liability Policy in the form of a declaration page or certificate of insurance prior to the date
on which Resident occupies the Unit, and thereafter upon Landlord’s request.
3. Landlord Administered Liability Protection Program. In the event that Resident fails to deliver Landlord such
written proof of the Liability Policy, Resident hereby automatically elects for Landlord to enroll Resident in a service
program administered by Landlord and backed by a liability coverage program administered by an insurance company

Program is not personal liability insurance or renter’s insurance. Landlord makes no representation that the Landlord

liability arising out of bodily injury to any third party. If Resident requires any of these coverages, then Resident should contact
an insurance agent or insurance company of Resident’s choice.

shall be automatically enrolled in additional personal property damage and replacement coverage for an Additional Fee
of $6.50 per month (“Landlord Administered Personal Property Protection Program”), which provides a limit of $4,000
at a $25 deductible. Resident may opt out of the Landlord Administered Personal Property Protection Program at any
time by notifying Landlord of Resident’s decision to opt out and by completing the required opt out form (“Personal
Property Protection Program Opt Out Form”). The Personal Property Protection Program Opt Out Form must be
completed no later than thirty (30) days prior to Resident’s next billing cycle, to opt out of the Landlord Administered
Personal Property Protection Program for the subsequent month. By completing the Personal Property Protection
Program Opt Out Form, Resident acknowledges that he or she shall not be allowed to file any claims for loss or damage
under the Landlord Administered Personal Property Protection Program, and Resident shall be personally responsible

Program when due, Resident shall automatically be opted out of the Landlord Administered Personal Property
Protection Program, will not be allowed to file any claims for loss or damage to the Resident’s personal property and will

CONTRACT IF SUCH RENEWAL INVOLVES THE SAME PARTIES AS THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT AND THE RENEWAL

Resident, as provided in §92.153(e)(3) of the Texas Property Code. The Resident has the right to install or rekey a
security device required by Subchapter D, Chapter 92 of the Texas Property Code and deduct the reasonable cost
from the Resident’s next Monthly Installment as provided by §92.164(a)(1) of the Texas Property Code. All notices or
requests by Resident under Subchapter D, Chapter 92 of the Texas Property Code must be in writing. Resident shall
pay for all repairs to, and replacements of, security devices if such repairs and replacements are necessitated by
misuse or damage by Resident, a member of Resident’s family, or an occupant, guest or invitee of Resident.
Installation of additional security devices or additional rekeying or replacement of security devices desired by
Resident may be paid by Resident in advance in accordance with §92.162(c) of the Texas Property Code, and may be
installed only by contractors authorized by Landlord. Landlord may deduct from the Security Deposit reasonable
costs incurred by Landlord to rekey the Security Devices as authorized by §92.156(e) of the Texas Property Code. The
term “security device” shall have the same meaning as such term is defined in §92.151 of the Texas Property Code.
9. Condition of Premises. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Contract to the contrary, Subchapter B, Chapter 92 of the
Texas Property Code and the following shall governs repair obligations:
a) Repair Requests. All requests for repairs must be in writing and delivered to Landlord. If Resident is delinquent in
any Monthly Installment at the time a repair notice is given, Landlord is not obligated to make the repair. In the
event of an emergency related to the condition of the Bedroom, the Unit or the Facility that materially affects the
physical health or safety of an ordinary resident, Resident may call Landlord or, if applicable, Landlord’s property
manager. Ordinarily, a repair to the heating and air conditioning system is not an emergency.
b) Notice. If Landlord fails to repair a condition that materially affects the physical health or safety of an ordinary
resident as required by the Contract or the Texas Property Code, Resident may be entitled to exercise remedies
under §92.056 and §92.0561 of the Texas Property Code. If Resident follows the procedures under those sections,
the following remedies may be available to Resident: (1) terminate the Contract and obtain an appropriate refund

the Texas Property Code; (3) deduct from the rent the cost of the repair or remedy according to §92.0561 of the
Texas Property Code; and (4) obtain judicial remedies according to §92.0563 of the Texas Property Code. Do not
exercise these remedies without consulting an attorney or carefully reviewing the procedures under the
applicable sections. The Texas Property Code presumes that seven (7) days is a reasonable period of time for
Landlord to make a diligent effort to repair a condition unless there are circumstances which establish that a
different period of time is appropriate (such as the severity and nature of the condition and the availability of
materials, labor, and utilities). Failure to strictly follow the procedures in the applicable sections may cause
Resident to be in default of the Contract.
c) Completion of Repairs.
(1) Resident may not repair or cause to be repaired any condition, regardless of the cause, without Landlord’s
permission. All decisions regarding repairs, including the completion of any repair, whether to repair or
replace the item, and the selection of contractors, will be at Landlord’s sole discretion.
(2) Landlord is not obligated to complete a repair on a day other than a business day unless required to do so by

This Utilities Addendum (this “Addendum”) is made and entered into as of 07/31/2020 (the “Effective Date”) by and between LMP
OW Rio, LLC (“Landlord”) and Nevyn J Duarte, an individual (“Resident”).
Landlord and Resident entered into that certain Housing Contract dated 08/13/2020 (the “Contract”) for a bedroom (the “Bedroom”) in
the The Nine at Rio located at 2100 Rio Grande St, Austin, TX 78705 (the “Facility”) to which this Addendum is attached.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:
1. Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum shall have the meanings given in the Contract.
2. Payment of Utilities. Responsibility for payment of utilities and services, including charges for usage, deposits, and any
charges, taxes and fees associated with the utility service or billing (collectively, “Costs”) and the method of allocating the
payment of utilities, services and costs will be as indicated below:
Public Utility Commission rules requires the Landlord to publish figures from the previous calendar year if that
information is available. The average monthly bill for all dwelling units in the apartment community last year was $____
per unit, varying from $____ for the lowest month’s bill to $_____ for the highest month’s bill for any unit. This
information may or may not be relevant since the past amounts may not reflect future changes in utility- company water
rates, weather variations, future total water consumption, changes in water-consumption habits of residents, and
other unpredictable factors.
3. Bill Method(s). The following are the applicable descriptions of the bill method(s) indicated above, minus any cap if
applicable:
Direct-Metered. Landlord will remain the customer of record for the applicable utility. The local utility provider measures the
utility usage in each unit and bills Landlord directly for such charges. The utility charges for each unit will be divided by the
number of days each bedroom was occupied in each unit to determine the charge per resident.
Sub-Metered. Resident’s unit is sub-metered to determine water/sewer usage. Resident will pay for the applicable utility
service based on the unit’s consumption measured by a submeter. Resident’s sub-metered charges will be determined using
either of the following methods:
a. The utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on the total utility bill divided by the total resident consumption to
come up with a utility rate. This rate will then be multiplied by the consumption measured by the sub- meter in
Resident’s Unit. The utility charge for each unit will be divided by the number of days each was occupied in each
unit to come up with each resident’s charge.
b. The measured consumption for Residents Unit will be multiplied by a number based on the utility provider’s rate
and/or bill (by dividing the dollar amount on the provider bill by the consumption amount on the provider bill). The
unit’s total cost will then be divided by the number of days each bed was occupied in each unit to come up with each
resident’s charge.
c. If sub metered for water, the service period dates billed will foster the water utility provider for the property
Allocation. Resident will pay for utilities based on an allocation formula, not actual meter reads. The utility bills received by
Landlord from the local utility provider will be used to calculate the charges per resident. If an allocation formula below is
used, Landlord or third party billing company will calculate Resident’s allocated share of the utility services in accordance
with state and local laws. If allowed by state law, Landlord, at Landlord’s sole discretion, may change the below methods of
determining Resident’s allocated share of the utility services, by written notice to Resident. Resident’s allocated charges will
be determined using one of the following methods below:
a. 50/50 Occupants. Fifty percent of the Facility’s utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on a percentage assigned
to each unit based on the square footage of that unit compared to the total amount of rentable and occupied square feet
of all units at the Facility. This per unit cost will then be divided by the number of occupied beds in that unit to determine
each resident’s charge. The remaining fifty percent of the Facility’s utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on a
percentage assigned to each unit and the number of occupants residing in each unit compared to the total number of
occupants at the Facility. This per unit cost will then be divided by the number of occupied beds in that unit to come up
with each resident’s charge.
b. Square Footage. The Facility’s’ utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on a percentage assigned to each unit
based on the square footage of that unit compared to the total amount of rentable and occupied square feet of all units at
the Facility. The per unit cost will then be divided by the number of days each bed was occupied in that unit to come up
with each resident’s charge.
c. Occupants. The Facility’s utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on a percentage assigned to each unit based on
the number of occupants residing in each unit based on a percentage assigned to each apartment unit based on the
number of occupants residing in each apartment unit compared to the total number of occupants at the Facility. This per
unit cost will then be divided by the number of occupied beds in that unit to come up with each resident’s charge.
d. Factored Occupants. The Facility’s utility bill will be allocated to each unit based on a percentage assigned to each
apartment unit based on the number of occupants in that unit compared to the total number of occupants at the Facility.
For purposes of this calculation, a unit with one resident will be considered to have one occupant; a unit with two
residents will be considered to have 1.6 occupants; and any additional occupants in the unit will be considered .3
additional occupants. Each unit’s charge will then be divided by the number of days each bed was occupied in that unit
to come up with each resident’s charge.
If a flat fee method for trash is used, Resident and Landlord agree that the charges indicated in this Addendum (as may be
amended with written notice as specified above) represent a fair and reasonable amount for the service(s) provided and that
the amount billing is not based on a monthly per unit cost.
At Landlords option, Landlord may bill utilities through a utility billing company or directly by Landlord. These utility charges
will be considered as additional charge to monthly installment. For utilities billed directly by a utility billing company, Resident
must make payment in full of the utility charges to the billing company prior to the due date listed on each bill. Whether or not
Landlord bills Resident directly or through a utility billing company, Resident agrees that the actual cost to Landlord and/or the
billing company when Resident fails to pay the utility bill on time is difficult or impossible to determine, but Resident agrees
that in the event of a late payment, Landlord and/or the billing company incur certain costs, such as additional bookkeeping
and administrative charges, additional charges from the billing company, costs in printing and mailing late notices, lost
opportunity costs of the payment, etc. Regardless of whether Landlord bills Resident directly or through a utility billing
company, utility payments are due as additional monthly charge. The failure to make the utility payment is a material and
substantial breach of the Housing Contract and will entitle the Landlord to exercise all remedies available under the Housing
Contract. The Landlord is entitled to use Resident security deposit to recover unpaid utility charges.
4. Resident Utilities. Any utilities and services other than the Landlord-Provided Utilities (each, a “Resident Utility”, and
collectively, the “Resident Utilities”) which are available to the Unit shall be separate from the Contract Amount and payable by
Resident and/or the other residents of the Unit as provided herein. In the event Landlord elects to use a third-party billing
service (“Billing Service”) as its billing agent for electric utility service from the public utility (“Supplier”). Resident shall enroll
with such Billing Service for utility billing BEFORE the Start Date. Utility bills shall be divided among the Residents of the Unit
so that each Resident shall receive a bill for their portion of the utility bills for the Unit. Resident shall PAY the Billing Service
(or if no Billing Service is utilized, pay to Landlord) for the Resident Utilities for which they are responsible during the Term of
this Contract and shall pay any applicable service fees, which shall be included on the utility bill Resident shall receive from
the Billing Service. Further, if a Billing Service is implemented, Resident will thereafter NOT contact individual utility companies
for Resident Utilities. Additionally, Resident shall be responsible for paying an annual service fee up to $65.00. The annual fee
shall be billed by the Billing Service at the beginning of the contract. Resident shall agree to the Terms of Service from the
Billing Service, which shall be made available to Resident at time of enrollment and which govern the relationship between
provider and Resident. Should Landlord elect to have Billing Service estimate a final utility invoice, Billing Service will provide
an estimated final invoice to Resident for the estimated amount of Resident Utilities. This estimate shall be calculated using
charges from prior months of utility service, historical data, and weather factors, as permitted under applicable utility billing
laws and regulations (“Estimated Invoice”). Resident agrees to pay the total amount provided on the Estimated Invoice to
Billing Service (or if no Billing Service is utilized, to Landlord) before the End Date of the Contract Term. Resident can contact
Billing Service (or if no Billing Service is utilized, Landlord) to true-up the final estimated bill with the final actual bill, once it has
been issued by the utility providers. If the estimated final invoice is higher than the actual bill, Billing Service (or if no Billing
Service is utilized, Landlord) will obtain Resident’s current address and issue a refund check to Resident mailed to that
address. If the estimated final invoice is less than the actual bill, Billing Service (or if no Billing Service is utilized, Landlord)
will make arrangements with Resident for Resident to pay any shortfall between the estimated final bill and the actual bill
amounts. Any balance left unpaid by Resident as a result of this true-up process may be sent to an outside collections
agency.
Payment for Residents utilities is due based on the due date provided by Billing Service (or if no Billing Service is utilized,
Landlord), which is sixteen (16) days from bill date to avoid late fees. Any past due balance on Residents account with Billing
Service may be subject to late fees. If Resident payment is late, or if there is no payment received, Resident are in default
under this Contract and, subject to any limitations imposed by applicable law, the fees, and other remedies under the Lease
are available to us.
If Resident does not pay the Billing Service when bills are due, Landlord may put the utility charge on Resident’s account with
Landlord and an additional utility administration fee of $50.00 per bill shall be added to Resident’s account. Utilities may be
subject to disconnection if not enrolled in Billing Service. Resident shall be responsible for keeping their account with
Landlord’s selected Billing Service active through the end of the Contract Term until their final bill from Billing Service is
provided to Resident, regardless of when Resident physically moves out of the Unit. To the extent that Landlord-Provided
Utilities include basic cable television, telephone services, and/or internet services, and Resident desires additional services
related thereto, such additional services shall be deemed Resident Utilities under the Contract, and Resident shall contract
directly with the applicable provider for such additional services; provided, however, Resident shall be permitted to contract for
such additional services at any time during the Contract Term. Resident shall pay (or cause to be paid) all charges for the
Resident Utilities on or prior to the date they become due. Should Landlord pay any charges for the Resident Utilities on behalf
of Resident or the other occupants of the unit, Resident shall be jointly and severally liable (with the other residents of the unit)
to Landlord for such charges.
Utilities not paid by Landlord must remain on, in Residents name, through the end of the Contract Term regardless of whether
Resident has moved out, except and unless Resident has assigned contract pursuant to the terms of the Housing Contract.
Refusal to maintain utility service in Resident name, when required to do so, will constitute a violation of the Contract and
Landlord may exercise all remedies available to us under the Contract.
If Resident is required and fails to place all applicable utilities in Resident’s name as of the Start Date and Landlord is
subsequently charged with utility charges attributable to Resident’s occupancy of the Unit, then Resident shall be issued (and
shall pay) a bill for such services by Landlord or Billing Service (which shall include a service charge in the amount of Ten
Dollars ($50.00) on each occasion); such service charge is used to compensate Landlord for Resident’s failure to become the
customer of record for such accounts, including, but not limited to charges assessed by the Billing Service to Landlord for
processing of the bill for the delinquent time period, opportunity cost of the money not paid, and other administrative costs.
Resident and Landlord agree that the charge described above is a reasonable estimate of the costs incurred, and shall not
exceed the total amount of $50.00.
5. Service Interruptions. Landlord shall not terminate Resident’s Contract for nonpayment of the utility service. In addition,
Landlord shall not disconnect or request the Supplier to disconnect the utility service due to Resident’s nonpayment of a utility
bill.
Utilities not paid by Landlord must remain on, in Resident’s name, through the End Date, regardless of whether Resident has
vacated the Unit, except and unless Resident has assigned Resident’s interest under the Contract pursuant to the terms of the
Contract. Refusal to maintain applicable utility services in Resident’s name, shall constitute a Default hereunder.
To the extent permitted under applicable law, Landlord shall not be liable for any losses or damages incurred as a result of
outages, interruptions, surges, fluctuations, or failures of any utility services in the Unit or the Facility. Resident shall comply
with all rules and regulations of the cable television, telephone, and internet service providers. Landlord shall not be required
to take any action if Resident’s cable television, telephone, or internet service is interrupted for any reason, and Resident shall
directly contact the applicable provider for all concerns regarding the connection, reception, operation, or repair of such
services. This Section survives the expiration or termination of the Contract.
6. General Information.
a. Any disputes relating to the computation or accuracy of Resident’s bills shall be between Resident and Billing Service.
Resident is encouraged to file billing disputes in writing with the person identified on Resident’s bill as the appropriate
contact.
b. During reasonable business hours, Resident has the right to examine the following information which will be kept in the

LANDLORD: RESIDENT:
This Parking and Access Addendum (this “Addendum”) is made and entered into as of 07/31/2020 (the
“Effective Date”) by and between LMP OW Rio, LLC (“Landlord”) and Nevyn J Duarte, an individual (“Resident”).
Landlord and Resident entered into that certain Housing Contract dated 08/13/2020 (the “Contract”) for a
bedroom (the “Bedroom”) in the The Nine at Rio located at 2100 Rio Grande St, Austin, TX 78705 (the “Facility”) to
which this Addendum is attached.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree as follows:
1. Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Addendum shall have the meanings given in the Contract.
2. Parking. Resident acknowledges that parking is available in a parking deck for the use of Residents of the Facility
who have leased an individual parking space for the Monthly Parking Fee. If Resident has elected to lease a parking
space in the facility, Resident shall pay the amount listed below each month along with monthly Rent Installment. If no
Parking Confirmation or Monthly Parking Fee is listed below resident will not have access to a parking space in the facility.
The terms of this Addendum shall coincide with the terms of the Contract and shall automatically expire upon the
expiration of the Contract or any renewal or extension of the Contract. In the event the parking space is not maintained
properly, is damaged, or is otherwise not returned in a condition satisfactory to Landlord at the End Date or the earlier
termination of the Contract, Resident shall pay to Landlord the cost of repairs to the parking space.
a. The Parking Permit and an Access Device, to the extent applicable, will be issued at move-in.
Resident’s Parking Permit is only valid for the vehicle Resident has registered with Landlord, (the “Registered Vehicle”).
The Parking Permit shall be displayed at all times in the lower left-hand corner of the front windshield of the Registered
Vehicle. If the Parking Permit is placed anywhere else or is not visible, the Registered Vehicle is subject to being towed or
booted at Resident’s expense. Resident shall, without delay, provide Landlord with written notice if Resident has a
change in vehicle, license plate, or both. If Resident loses the Parking Permit, Resident shall promptly obtain a
replacement from Landlord and pay the Replacement Parking Permit Fee.
b. Resident shall only park in designated parking spaces or, if applicable, Resident’s assigned parking
space. Landlord has the right to have Resident’s vehicle towed or booted at Resident’s expense if such vehicle (i) is
parked in a loading zone, fire lane, on landscaping or grass, in front of dumpsters (if any) or on curbs, (ii) is double
parked, (iii) appears to be abandoned, (iv) is not, with respect to Resident only, a Registered Vehicle, (v) appears to be in
a state of disrepair, (vi) causes damage to the parking facilities, or (vii) does not have a current registration or inspection.
3. Controlled Access.
a. The Facility may be furnished with a controlled access device (the “Controlled Access”), subject to the
terms and conditions of this Section. Resident acknowledges that any benefit Resident receives from the Controlled
Access is incidental to the existence of controlled access. Resident acknowledges and agrees that the Landlord’s
installation and use of the Controlled Access does not constitute a voluntary undertaking, representation or agreement by
Landlord to provide security to Resident or any guest of the Unit. There is no guarantee that the presence of the
Controlled Access will in any way increase personal security or safety of Resident, Resident’s guests or their respective
belongings. The Controlled Access can be rendered inoperative at any time. Resident acknowledges and agrees that
Landlord has no obligation to maintain the Controlled Access, and Landlord may temporarily or permanently remove the
Controlled Access at any time without providing alternative controlled access to the Facility. To the full extent permitted by
applicable law, Landlord shall not be liable to Resident or any guest of the Facility for any injury, damage, or loss
whatsoever which is caused as a result of any problem, defect, malfunction or failure of the performance of the Controlled
Access, or for any injury, assault, vandalism or other crime occurring at the Facility. Resident acknowledges Landlord shall
not be liable in any way for any disruption in the operation or performance of the Controlled Access.
b. Resident acknowledges that an access device (“Access Device”) is required to operate the Controlled
Access. Resident represents and warrants that Resident understands how to use the Controlled Access and how the
609089696.3
Controlled Access functions. Resident will not act in any way to impair the use or function of the Controlled Access.
Resident agrees to use reasonable care in the operation of the Controlled Access and to comply with any and all
instructions, rules or procedures instituted by Landlord regarding the operation of the same. Should Resident fail to return
the Access Device to Landlord upon request, or should Resident lose or damage the Access Device, Resident shall be
liable for the Replacement Access Device Fee.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Landlord and Resident have executed this Addendum as of the date and year first
above written.
