1. Driver acknowledges that the Vehicle described in this Agreement is the property of the Company, even though title maybe held in the name of a third party, and agrees the Vehicle was received by Driver in good mechanical and physical condition, except as specifically noted by the Company and Driver in writing before Driver took possession of the Vehicle. Driver agrees to return the Vehicle to the Company (together with all property tools, accessories, and equipment) in the same conditioner as Driver received it, ordinary wear and tear excepted (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion), on the dale, lime and place specified In the Agreement, or sooner if demanded by the Company. In the event the Vehicle is not returned to the rental office specified on the reverse side, Driver agrees to pay the Company a minimum drop-off charge of $100.00, as well as any and all recovery charges incurred by the Company.

2. Driver agrees to pay the Company on demand all charges and fees set forth in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, those for time, mileage (as determined by the factory-installed odometer or odometer), minimums, service, fuel, collision, collision damage waiver (“CDW”), all applicable taxes, an administrative charge of up to $150 for all other costs and expenses incident to the damage, loss, repair, or replacement of the rental Vehicle, and any other charges or fees provided for by this Agreement. If the Driver has directed the billing or charges to be paid by another person or company, and such person or company fails to make timely payment to the Company when due, Driver agrees to promptly pay all such charges and fees to the Company on demand, together with an additional administrative charge as provided for herein.

3. Driver agrees to be completely responsible for, to indemnify and hold the Company harmless, and to reimburse the Company on demand, for any and all loss or damage to the Vehicle, or to any person or property (regardless of the negligence or fault of the Driver), arising out of the Driver’s use or rental of the Vehicle, or which occurs while the Vehicle is being rented by the Driver, or the Vehicle is in Driver’s possession, custody, or control. In the event the rented Vehicle sustains any damage or loss during the period of time the vehicle is being rented by the Driver, whether caused by Driver or not, or whether Driver was diving the vehicle or not, Driver agrees to pay the Company on demand, an amount equal to the cost to repair all such damage or loss to the Vehicle. Driver specifically authorizes Company to charge Driver’s credit card for the cost of any and all repairs to the Vehicle, which result from damage or loss to the Vehicle during the period of lime the Vehicle is being rented by the Driver. Each Driver listed on the front of this Agreement specifically agrees that the liability and responsibility of all Drivers listed, for any and all damage or loss to the Vehicle, or to any person or property, shall be joint and several. If Driver is covered by a valid policy of insurance, which covers any such loss or damage to the Vehicle or to any person or property, or covers part of any such loss or damage, Driver’s insurance shall be considered the primary insurance, and Driver’s insurance shall be primarily liable for any and all such loss or damage to the Vehicle, or to any person or property, and any obligations of the Company for such loss or damage shall be considered secondary to the Driver’s insurance. Driver further agrees to cooperate with the Company in obtaining reimbursement from Driver’s insurance company for any and all such damage or loss to the Vehicle or to any person or property.

4. LIMITED COLLISION DAMAGE WAIVER {“LOW”). In the event the Driver purchases a limited Collision Damage Waiver from the Company, this means the Company agrees to limit the Driver’s liability, for ACCIDENTAL COLLISION DAMAGE only, to a fixed amount (“LDW Amount’), but only if the Driver has complied with all terms and conditions of this Agreement (such as authorized drivers, locations, no racing, etc.), and only if the Company has not been reimbursed by any insurance for the Stated Amount. In no event shall the Company be entitled to a double recovery for any collision damage to or caused by the Vehicle.

5. Driver agrees to have in place and maintain auto liability, collision and comprehensive insurance which covers Driver, the Company, and the Vehicle during the entire period of time the Vehicle is being rented by Driver, in an amount which satisfies California state law minimum requirements. Where California state law requires the Company to provide auto liability insurance, or if Driver has no valid auto liability insurance, the Company has auto liability insurance (the “Policy”) that is secondary to any other valid and collectible insurance, whether primary, secondary, excess, or contingent. The Company Policy provides bodily injury and property damage liability coverage with limits no higher than minimum levels prescribed by the financial responsibility laws of the state whose laws apply to the loss. Driver and Company reject PIP, medical payments, no-fault, uninsured and under-Insured motorist coverage, where permitted by law.

6. VEHICLE DOWNTIME. In the event the rented Vehicle sustains damage which requires repairs during any portion of the rental period, Driver agrees to pay to the Company, on demand, an amount equal to the cost to repair all damage to the Vehicle, including vehicle downtime at the staled daily rental rate, for each day the Vehicle cannot be rented by the Company as a result of the damage, plus towing and storage charges, if any. Vehicle downtime in calculated from the date the Vehicle is damaged until the date the Vehicle is repaired to the condition it was in prior to being rented by Driver. Driver shall not be liable for any portion of Vehicle downtime caused by the Company.

7. THEFT AND VANDALISM. Driver shall be 100% responsible for the theft of the Vehicle and any and all property in or on the Vehicle, and shall also be 100% responsible for any and all vandalism to the Vehicle during the period of time the Vehicle is being rented by the Driver, regardless of any LOW purchased by Driver. Driver specifically authorizes Company to charge Driver’s credit card for all amounts required to repair or replace any damage or loss to the Vehicle, or any property in or on the Vehicle, caused by theft or vandalism.

8. RESTRICTIONS AND PROHIBITIONS. Certain uses of the Vehicle and other things you or a Driver may do, or fail to do, will violate this Agreement.

Comprehensive and collision damage coverage extending to the rental Vehicle. Driver’s insurance will provide at least the minimum limits of coverage required by the financial responsibility laws of the state where loss occurs. Because the Driver is required to provide automobile insurance, the Company is not. In slates where the law requires Company lo provide insurance, ii will provide excess insurance only, up lo the minimum limits required by the financial responsibility laws. The Driver’s insurance will be primary.

Where permitted by law, Driver rejects uninsured, underinsured, supplemental, personal injury coverage, and no-fault coverage. Where Company is required lo provide such coverage, Driver is afforded the minimum limits required by law. Any breach of this Agreement will void any insurance coverage provided by the Company. 

11. The Company, including its officers, directors, employees, and agents, shall not be liable for any loss, injury or damage whatsoever, arising out of Driver’s use or rental of the Vehicle, including, but not limited to, any loss, injury or damage to the Driver of the Vehicle, any passenger in the Vehicle, or any property transported by, or kept, left, stored, or located in or on the Vehicle, whether or not such loss, injury or damage was caused by, or in any way related to the negligence of the Company, its officers, directors, employees or agents.
