This LEASE AGREEMENT is made and entered into this 23rd day of SEPTEMBER, 2004, by and between RAVI K. SHETH and MARIANGELA BERNARDI, hereinafter referred to as "Landlord", and FRANKY OORREEL and SEVRINE LEHOUCKE, hereinafter referred to as "Tenant".

Landlord leases to Tenant and Tenant leases from Landlord, upon the terms and conditions contained herein, the dwelling located at 1848 CLAYTON AVENUE, PITTSBURGH, PA 15214 for the period commencing on the 17th day of OCTOBER, 2004, and thereafter until the 31st day of OCTOBER, 2005 (hereafter the termination date).

During the period of this Agreement, Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent the sum of $1300 per month.

Should Landlord decide to sell the property, Tenant has the first option to purchase during the period of this Agreement, for the purchase price of $330,000.

The lease may be renewed beyond the termination date upon mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant, at which time a new Agreement must be signed. If a new Agreement is signed, the rent, the option to purchase, and the purchase price may all be changed. Should Tenant not wish to renew beyond the first year, he/she is required to provide Landlord with sixty (60) days notice prior to the termination date of this lease.

Tenant may terminate the lease before the termination date if Tenant must relocate to another city for work-related reasons. In this event, Tenant is required to give the Landlord notice in writing 1 month (30 days) in advance of his/her moving. Notice must be given on the first day of a month. If notice is given after the first day of the month, the 1 month (30 day) notice will not start until the following month. Such notice must also provide evidence in writing of the required relocation.

Rent for the initial period 17-31 October 2004 is $650, and is due at the signing of this lease. Thereafter, rent ($1300 per month) is due and payable monthly, in advance, no later than 5:00 p.m. on the first day of every month.

Tenant agrees to pay to the Landlord a late charge of $43.33 for each day after the fifth day of the month that rent is not received, regardless of the cause, including dishonored checks, time being of the essence. An additional Service Charge of $50 will be paid to Landlord for each dishonored check.

Payment of rent by direct deposit is encouraged. Payment by personal check will be accepted until the first check is returned unpaid. A Service Charge of $50 will be paid to Landlord for this and all other dishonored checks. Thereafter, regardless of cause, no additional payments may afterwards be made by personal check. Rent must then be made by cashier's check, money order or certified check. Rent checks may be mailed through the United States Postal Service at Tenant's risk. Any rents lost in the mail will be treated as if unpaid until received by Landlord.

The acceptance by Landlord of partial payments of rent due shall not, under any circumstances, constitute a waiver, nor affect any notice or legal proceeding in unlawful detainer theretofore given or commenced under state law. Acceptance of partial rent due or late payments does not create a custom nor does it constitute a continuing waiver of the obligation to pay on time. No payment by the tenant or receipt by the landlord of any amount of the monthly rent herein stipulated shall be deemed to be other than on account of the stipulated rent, nor shall any endorsement on any check or any letter accompanying such payment of rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, but the landlord may accept such a partial payment without prejudice to his rights to collect the balance of such rent.

If Tenant leaves premises unoccupied for 15 days while rent is due and unpaid, Landlord is granted the right hereunder to take immediate possession thereof and to exclude Tenant therefrom; removing all Tenant's property contained therein and placing it into storage at Tenant's expense.

Tenant agrees to use said dwelling as living quarters only for two (2) adults and zero (0) children, namely: FRANKY OORREEL and SEVRINE LEHOUCKE, and to pay $150 each month for each other person who shall occupy the premises in any capacity.

Tenant agrees not to assign this Lease, nor to sublet any portion of the property, nor to allow any other person to live therein other than as named in paragraph 11 above without first obtaining written permission from Landlord and paying the appropriate surcharge.

Tenant agrees to pay a Security Deposit of $1950 (i.e. equal to one and one half month's rent) to bind Tenant's pledge of full compliance with the terms of this agreement. This Security Deposit is to be paid at the signing of this lease. The Security Deposit may not be used to pay rent.

Release of the Security Deposit, at the option of the Landlord, is subject to the provisions below:
A. The full term of the Agreement has been completed (unless the conditions in Paragraphs 5 or 22 have been met).
B. No damage to the premises, buildings, grounds is evident.

E. All keys have been returned.
F. A forwarding address for Tenant has been left with the Landlord.
G. It is the tenant's responsibility to call, make arrangements, and be at residence to let meter readers in for final reading on gas, electric, and water. If Landlord or Landlord's agent has to do this, there will be a $100 charge for each utility.
Within thirty (30) days after termination of the occupancy, the Landlord will mail the balance of the deposit to the address provided by Tenant in the names of all signatories hereto; or at the Option of the Landlord will impose a claim on the deposit and so notify the Tenant.

Tenant agrees to accept the property in its current condition and to return it in similar "move-in clean" condition, or to pay a special cleaning charge of $200 upon vacating the premises. The wood floors, walls and carpets are to be clean. If professional cleaning is necessary, the additional charge will be billed to Tenants.

Tenant will be responsible for payment of all utilities, garbage, water and sewer charges, telephone, gas, and other bills incurred during the term of this Lease. Tenant specifically authorizes Landlord to deduct amounts of any unpaid bills from the Security deposit upon termination of this Agreement.

No rights of storage are given by this Agreement. Landlord shall not be liable for any loss of Tenant's property by fire, theft, breakage, burglary, or otherwise, nor for any accidental damage to persons or property in or about the leased premises resulting from electrical failure, water, rain, windstorm, etc., which may cause issue or flow into or from any part of said premises or improvements, including pipes, gas lines, sprinklers, or electrical connections, whether caused by the negligence of Landlord, Landlord's employees, contractors, agents, or by any other cause whatsoever. Tenant hereby agrees to make no claim for any such damages or loss against Landlord.

Tenant is strongly advised to purchase renter's insurance.

Any removal of Landlord's property without express written permission from the Landlord shall constitute abandonment and surrender of the premises and termination by the resident of this Agreement. Landlord may take immediate possession, exclude Tenant from property and store all Tenant's possessions at Tenant's expense pending reimbursement in full for Landlord's loss and damages.

Any improvements to the property made by tenant inside or outside must not be removed without written permission from the Landlord.

During this time, Tenant may vacate the property, or sign a new lease with the new owner at new owner's option.

Both Landlord and Tenant waive trial by jury and agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of a court of subject matter jurisdiction located in Allegheny County, State of Pennsylvania. In such event, no action shall be entertained by said court or any court of competent jurisdiction if filed more than one year subsequent to the date the cause(s) of action accrued.

Tenant agrees to accept said dwelling and all of the furnishings and appliances therein as being in good and satisfactory condition unless a written statement of any objections is delivered to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after resident takes possession.

G. Comply with all provisions of this Agreement, particularly with respect to paying the rent on time and caring for the property.

Tenant signature ______________________________________ Date ____________________

Properties built before and during the late 1960s and early 1970s may have had lead based products and asbestos products used in them. These products were considered to be safe at the time they were used, just as the building products used today are considered safe for home construction. Only the test of time will show which products are or are not safe to use. Having read the above, the tenant signs the lease below with the full understanding that these conditions may be present in this property, but that these conditions are unlikely to be present, because the property was built after the year 2000. The Tenant, and all parties associated with this property, relieve the owner and any of his agents from any responsibilities for these conditions, regardless of when or how these conditions were caused.

All parties agree that termination of this Agreement by Tenant prior to termination date, for reasons other than stated in Paragraph 5, will constitute breach of the tenancy. Such a breach requires sixty (60) days notice. In addition, should such a breach occur, $1300 of the Security Deposit shall be forfeited in favor of Landlord, and Tenant will pay an additional full month's rent to Landlord as an Early Termination fee. In addition, Tenant will restore property to rental condition or be charged the cost of restoring the property to rental condition.

From time to time, the Landlord may be represented by an agent who will carry identification.

Covenants contained in this Lease, once breached, cannot afterward be performed, and unlawful detainer proceedings may be commenced at once, without notice to Tenant.

Unless specifically disallowed by law, should litigation arise hereunder, service of process therefor may be obtained through certified mail, return receipt requested; the parties hereto waiving any and all rights they may have to object to the method by which service was perfected.

Tenant agrees to send all notices to Landlord in writing by certified mail, return receipt requested. This is the only form of notice permitted in a court hearing as evidence of notice given.

Should it become necessary for Landlord to employ an Attorney to enforce any of the conditions or covenants hereof, including the collection of rentals, or gaining possesion of the Premises, Tenant agrees to pay all expenses so incurred, including a reasonable Attorney's fee.

Should any provision of this Lease be found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the Lease shall not be affected thereby and each term and provision herein shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

All rights given to Landlord by this Lease shall be cumulative to any other laws which might exist or come into being. Any exercise or failure to exercise by Landlord of any right shall not act as a waiver of any other rights. No statement or promise of Landlord or his agent as to tenancy, repairs, alterations, or other terms and conditions shall be binding unless reduced to writing and signed by Landlord.

Tenant shall not record this Agreement on the Public Records of any public office. In the event that Tenant shall record this Agreement, this Agreement shall, at Landlord's option, terminate immediately, and Landlord shall be entitled to all rights and remedies that it has at law or in equity.

The parties agree that this document contains the entire agreement between them, and that this Agreement shall not be modified, changed, altered, or amended in any way except through a written amendment signed by all the parties.

In this Agreement the singular number where used will also include the plural, the masculine gender will also include the feminine, the term Landlord will include, Owner or Lessor; and the term Tenant(s) will include Resident, Lessee or Renter.

The Tenant was asked if he/she could speak, read and understand English. He/she was told that signing below would indicate that they understood what they were signing and that he/she did speak and read English.

YOU SHOULD READ AND UNDERSTAND THIS LEASE. IT IS A LEGAL AND BINDING CONTRACT.
