Required Liability Insurance; Personal Property During the full term of the Housing Agreement, Resident agrees to obtain and maintain at Resident’s expense a policy of personal liability insurance (i.e., renter’s liability insurance) from a licensed insurance carrier in the United States, with coverage of at least $100,000 per occurrence at actual replacement cost, covering Owner’s losses of any kind arising from fire, smoke or water and caused by Resident’s negligence and/or by Resident’s animal. The liability insurance requirement and the existence or limits of any such insurance will not reduce or supersede Resident’s obligations under this Housing Agreement, except to the extent Owner charges and Resident pays for a waiver of this insurance requirement as provided below. Resident is not obligated to purchase insurance from any specific provider and may arrange its own personal liability insurance policy from any insurer of Resident’s choosing meeting the requirements of this paragraph, in which case Resident agrees to provide written proof of the required personal liability insurance coverage, including causing Owner and Manager to be listed as named interested parties on such insurance coverage, by mailing the proof of insurance to P.O. Box 18999, Atlanta, GA 31126-1399. Owner will provide instructions prior to move-in for submitting proof of insurance or purchasing a compliant insurance policy; Resident’s failure to comply with these insurance requirements will be a breach by Resident with Owner reserving its remedies but will not give Resident any right of termination. If Resident fails or chooses not to provide sufficient proof of compliant personal liability insurance to Owner by the Start Date, or if Resident’s insurance is cancelled during the term of this Housing Agreement, then Owner may, at its option, waive Resident’s obligation to provide such insurance and obtain its own coverage in Owner’s name for the same limited risks (up to $100,000 per occurrence from fire, smoke or water damage caused accidentally by Resident’s negligence and/or by Resident’s animal) at Owner’s expense; in such case, Resident agrees to pay as consideration for this waiver to $15.00 per installment as additional Rent during the remaining term of this Agreement, of which Owner would retain up to $5.00 per installment as an administrative fee and use the remaining portion to procure such insurance for itself. This waiver is not insurance, does not release Resident from liability for other damage or causes and does not cover Resident’s personal property. Owner strongly recommends that Resident maintain insurance covering Resident’s personal property or belongings, which Resident may elect to purchase. Neither Owner nor any of its employees, representatives or agents assumes any liability, directly or indirectly, for loss or damage to the personal property of Resident or others by fire, theft or any other cause. Any personal property remaining in the bedroom space and/or apartment at the end of the Term or after earlier termination of this Agreement will be considered abandoned by Resident and may be disposed of by Owner at the risk and expense of Resident, with Owner maintaining a landlord’s lien for unpaid rent as provided by law. Owner will not be liable or responsible for storage or disposition of the Resident’s personal property. If there are multiple individuals comprising Resident, then all references to and obligations of Resident in this paragraph 8 will apply to each such individual, separately.
