Therefore, and if the customer unilaterally desists and leaves the property prior to the expected agreed term, the latter must pay the outstanding rent amounts until the end of the agreement for any damages caused to The Right Stay and as a penalty for the unilateral and anticipated termination of the agreement.

If the customer extended its stay, it shall pay the entire amount of such extension, in advance upon the execution of such extension agreement by The Right Stay and the customer.  Any payment made without execution of such document shall not result in any right to the extension of the stay by the customer.

Between 15 and 30 days:  50% will be charged.
