TERMS/CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT
RENTAL PAYMENTS
1. You agree to make all payments in advance of each rental period. These payments are not contingent on practice or lesson schedules.
We will consider as delinquent all payments that are received 15 days past due and you will incur a late charge (20% of payment). All rental
payments less Maintenance service charge will be applied toward the purchase of the instrument if rented on a continuous monthly basis.
There will be a $25 fee for any returned check or Auto Check Debiting NSF.
REPAIRS
2. All repairs must be done only by Melody Mart Inc. You will have sole responsibility to pay for the cost of repair if there is damage
resulting from negligence or your failure to properly care for your instrument.
Coverage is excluded for reeds, mouthpieces, valve or slide oil, strings, bridge, or bow.
STRING INSTRUMENT RENTALS
3. Smaller string instruments are traded up to larger ones as a child grows. Smaller instruments are not usually the one a customer will
eventually purchase. Your payment, less service charge, will go towards a full-size string instrument.
SWITCHING TO A DIFFERENT TYPE OF INSTRUMENT
4. If you decide to switch instruments, monthly rental payments may change depending on the instrument. The purchase price may also
change depending on instrument. A $20.00 exchange fee will be charge at the time of switch.
PURCHASE INFORMATION
5. The instrument shall remain ours until it has been paid for in full. You have the option to purchase the instrument at any time during the
rental (if you are not in default of this contract). If you exercise this option, the price you pay will be the list price of the instrument plus any
applicable taxes and you will receive a credit for the total of your monthly payments, exclusive of monthly maintenance service charges.
Once your monthly payment exclusive of monthly maintenance service charges equals the list price plus applicable taxes, you will gain title
of the instrument and our mutual obligations under this agreement will cease. You are entitled to a discount if you purchase the instrument
outright before the expiration of the rental. You may call Melody Mart Inc. for information about discounts.
RETURNING YOUR INSTRUMENT
6. You may return the instrument at any time to terminate this agreement. There are no refunds for early returns. You must return the
instrument to Melody Mart Inc. If the instrument is damaged or defective when returned, you may have to pay additional fees for the repair
of the instrument. When the instrument is returned, you must pay any outstanding amounts. If the instrument is returned, all monies
toward the purchase of the instrument will be forfeited. If you file any form of Bankruptcy, you must return the rented instrument to
Melody Mart Inc. Immediately. Under no circumstances do you have the right to keep the instrument.
INFORMATION ON BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT

B. If you are in default of this agreement, we may terminate this agreement with you. If you owe us money that has remained unpaid for
more than 60 days, and we send this obligation to collection, all payments along with collection and legal fees associated with these actions
will be due. If you are still in the possession of the instrument at the time you are sent to collection you will be responsible for the price of
the instrument plus all costs including the collection and legal fees associated with these actions. Return of the instrument as credit toward
this obligation will no longer be accepted and we will report promptly to the credit bureau.
Title and right of Possession of the instrument shall remain with Melody Mart unless Lessee chooses to buy. At that time, ownership will be
transferred to Lessee.

any right to sell or sublease rental instrument. In the event that the rental payments become past due by 60 days or more, Melody Mart will
consider the Lessee in default of the Agreement and the entire balance of payments owed will become due upon demand.
