If rental/lease and M&R account is in “current” status, RMBM will cover replacement costs which are NOT covered by Lessee’s homeowner’s or renters’ insurance plan deductible. Replacement will be an instrument of estimated comparable value and condition AT THE TIME OF LOSS (not the condition on the original contract date.)

If original instrument is later recovered, it is to be returned to Ray’s Midbell Music within 48 hours of recovery. Limit ONE TIME replacement for the original serial number for the life of the contract. Any outstanding balance due on the original instrument rentalpurchase or lease account will be due and payable under terms of original Rental-Purchase or Lease Agreement.

Refundable Security Deposit: If Lessee chooses to send the monthly payment by mail instead of opting for direct debit, the Initial Transaction is to include a refundable security deposit equal to 2 months rent, M&R, & tax. All monthly payments must be received by stated due date. Applicable late charges and fees will be incurred for payments not received by due date. We retain our right to terminate this agreement and repossess instrument for default of payment. Upon return of instrument (provided account is in good standing), security deposit will be refunded by check, by mail within 30 days of return. Upon request, security deposit may be used toward the final two (2) payments of rental-purchase agreement. Upon pay-off, security deposit may be

Note: M&R Plus fees do NOT apply toward purchase of property.


10. Instrument Transfers: When transferring from one instrument to another, we allow 100% of UP TO twelve (12) regular monthly rent payments toward a different instrument of EQUAL OR GREATER value. If transferring to an instrument of LESSER value (i.e., saxophone to trumpet), we will allow a PERCENTAGE of UP TO twelve (12) monthly rent payments proportional to the price that the replacement instrument is to the original. M&R Plus Fees do NOT apply toward the instrument transfer. Transfers are only allowed for the SAME STUDENT and will generally apply towards a band or orchestra instrument (exceptions will be made at the discretion of the company.)


11. Non-payment: Non-payment of rental shall be considered default and will result in termination of agreement. The instrument shall be returned immediately to Ray's Midbell Music upon default of this agreement. Pursuant to Iowa Code Section 714.1(2), if lessee fails to return the instrument within 72 hours after the time specified, the law allows the conclusion the lessee intended to misappropriate the instrument. RMBM will seek prosecution under the criminal code for theft upon the misappropriation of any property of RMBM. In event of default, Lessee does authorize RMBM the right to REPOSSESS instrument (wherever located.) Lessee agrees to pay for any expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by Lessor in maintaining or
defending any action or proceeding instituted by default of Lessee. A $30. fee is due and payable in event of repossession.
