“Thank You” for your business. The Waiver covers all minor accidental damage or
breakage up to $500. Coverage does not cover extraordinary cleaning charges, damage
resulting from negligence or willful or wanton conduct. Guests must notify the Resort

Rental as shown above of this Rental Agreement by or before the due date. In the event
of late payment, or failure to pay, MacAulay Resorts Ltd. has the right to levy the
