The form contains 30 paragraphs of pretyped provisions and
requires that a user supply only the following information:
(1) Name of landlord and the landlord’s address for notices;
(2) name of tenant; (3) identification of the premises;
(4) “Lease date”; (5), term of lease, including beginning and
ending dates; (6) amount of yearly rent; (7) amount of monthly
rent; and (8) amount of security. The form also has two spaces
for the respective signatures of the landlord and the tenant, and
a single space for the signature of a witness. Each of the lease
agreements as filled out by Curto and his firm is identical,
except for the last two numbers of the applicable year (in the
case of 2000, the “19" on the form is crossed out and “2000" is
typed above) and the amounts of monthly and yearly rents.
Pursuant to Curto’s advice, certain of the pretyped provisions of
the lease agreements were crossed out; i.e., provisions stating
that “These charges [cost of required maintenance service
contracts] will be added rent”, “Tenant may not alter, decorate,
change or add to the Premises”, and “Tenant may not sublet all or
part of the Premises, or assign this Lease or permit any other
person to use the Premises”. Curto also advised the parties to
the lease agreements as to the amount of rent that decedent
should pay under each of the lease agreements, and the parties
followed that advice as well.
