(Member/Member-Elect of the U.S. House of Representatives) agree that this District Office
Lease Attachment (“Attachment”) is incorporated into and made part of the Lease (“Lease”) and,
if applicable, District Office Lease Amendment (“Amendment”) to which it is attached.
2. Performance. Lessor expressly acknowledges that neither the U.S. House of Representatives
(the “House”) nor its Officers are liable for the performance of the Lease. Lessor further
expressly acknowledges that payments made by the Chief Administrative Officer of the House
(the “CAO”) to Lessor to satisfy Lessee’s rent obligations under the Lease – which payments are
made solely on behalf of Lessee in support of his/her official and representational duties as a
Member of the House – shall create no legal obligation or liability on the part of the CAO or the
House whatsoever. Lessee shall be solely responsible for the performance of the Lease and
Lessor expressly agrees to look solely to Lessee for such performance.
3. Modifications. Any amendment to the Lease must be in writing and signed by the Lessor and
Lessee. Lessor and Lessee also understand and acknowledge that the Administrative Counsel for
the CAO (“Administrative Counsel”) must review and give approval of any amendment to the
Lease prior to its execution.
4. Compliance with House Rules and Regulations. Lessor and Lessee understand and
acknowledge that the Lease shall not be valid, and the CAO will not authorize the disbursement
of funds to the Lessor, until the Administrative Counsel has reviewed the Lease to determine that
it complies with the Rules of the House and the Regulations of the Committee on House
Administration, and approved the Lease by signing the last page of this Attachment.
5. Payments. The Lease is a fixed term lease with monthly installments for which payment is due
in arrears on or before the end of each calendar month. In the event of a payment dispute, Lessor
agrees to contact the Office of Finance of the House at 202-225-7474 to attempt to resolve the
dispute before contacting Lessee.
6. Void Provisions. Any provision in the Lease purporting to require the payment of a security
deposit shall have no force or effect. Furthermore, any provision in the Lease purporting to vary
the dollar amount of the rent specified in the Lease by any cost of living clause, operating
expense clause, pro rata expense clause, escalation clause, or any other adjustment or measure
during the term of the Lease shall have no force or effect.
7. Certain Charges. The parties agree that any charge for default, early termination or cancellation
of the Lease which results from actions taken by or on behalf of the Lessee shall be the sole
responsibility of the Lessee, and shall not be paid by the CAO on behalf of the Lessee.
8. Death, Resignation or Removal. In the event Lessee dies, resigns or is removed from office
during the term of the Lease, the Clerk of the House may, at his or her sole option, either: (a)

will be considered null and void.
10. Early Termination. If either Lessor or Lessee terminates the Lease under the terms of the Lease,
the terminating party agrees to promptly file a copy of any termination notice with the Office of
Finance, U.S. House of Representatives, O’Neill Federal Building, Suite 3220, Attn: Jason

attached Lease or attached Amendment, the provisions of this Attachment shall control, and those
inconsistent provisions of the Lease or the Amendment shall have no force and effect to the
