  1. By undertaking the actions specified in these Regulations and under the conditions set out herein,
    the Lessor rents, and the Tenant accepts the rental of the Room or apartment, for the purpose of
    residing in it during the Rental Period, subject to the changes mentioned in § 9 section 1 of the
    Regulations.
  2. Depending on the Rental Period chosen by the User, the User is obligated to collect the Room or
    apartment on the Check-in Day, unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise in writing.
  3. The Agreement is concluded in writing, either at the Property or at another location agreed upon
    by the Parties.
  4. Rooms or apartments at Nextdoor Kraków are either single or multi-occupancy. In the case of
    multi-occupancy rooms or apartments, other individuals in the number indicated in the description
    of the room or apartment on the Service website are also authorized to use the space. The
    description of the room or apartment on the Service website also contains other parameters of
    the room or apartment, which are binding on the Parties. The Tenant selects the type of room or
    apartment in the Application. The Lessor is not responsible for the selection of co-residents
    authorized to use the room or apartment; therefore, the Tenant makes their choice of room or
    apartment at their own risk.
  5. The collection of the Room or apartment takes place based on a Protocol signed by the Parties
    on the Check-in Day. Signing the Protocol by the Parties is equivalent to the Tenant’s acceptance
    of the rental object. Upon collection of the Room or apartment, the Tenant receives one (1) set of
    keys. Any loss of keys must be immediately reported to the Lessor. For the loss or destruction of:
    a. keys, the Lessor will charge the Tenant a fee of 200 PLN; and/or
    b. access tags/cards, the Lessor will charge the Tenant a fee of 100 PLN.
  6. The fees specified in § 1 section 5 letters a.-b. must be paid by the Tenant to the Lessor upon the
    Lessor issuing the Tenant a new set of keys and/or access tags/key fobs. The furnishings of the
    Room or apartment are specified in the Protocol and correspond to the standard of the Room or
    apartment selected by the Tenant during the completion of the Application.
  7. In addition to renting the Room or apartment, the Tenant is entitled to: a. co-use of the Common
    Areas, under the terms and conditions specified in § 5 of these Regulations,
    b. use of the Internet, under the terms and conditions specified in § 6 of these Regulations.
  8. The Room or apartment number is assigned during the Agreement conclusion procedure

~ 3 ~

Kraków during the Rental Period may be subject to change, based on a notice given to the
Tenant by the Lessor or the Manager with 7 days’ notice or shorter, in the event of justified
circumstances that were unknown to the Lessor at the time of handing over the Room or
apartment to the Tenant, such as the need for construction or renovation work, the occurrence of
a failure, or the need for disinfection. The standard and furnishings of the Room or apartment to
which the Tenant will be relocated will remain unchanged. The Tenant is obligated to comply with
the deadline for changing the rented space within Nextdoor Kraków. A change made under this
section does not constitute a change in the content of the Agreement regarding the change of the
rental object, which would allow the Tenant to terminate the Agreement.
§ 2. Conclusion of the Agreement

  1. The conclusion of the Agreement is made through the following steps:
    a) The User makes a reservation via the website, by phone, or in person, selecting the Rental
    Period and the type of Room or apartment.
    b) The User provides personal data necessary for the conclusion of the Agreement.
    c) After completing the reservation application, the Tenant will receive a reservation
    confirmation at the email address provided, no later than two (2) business days from the
    submission of the reservation application.
    In the event of no available rooms at Nextdoor Kraków, a system failure beyond the control
    of the Lessor, or other extraordinary circumstances preventing the conclusion of the
    Agreement, the Lessor will not be obligated to conclude the Agreement, of which the User
    will be informed via email within two (2) business days from the payment of the Deposit and
    Administrative Fee (§ 2.1 of the Regulations) or the payment of the Administrative Fee (§ 2.2
    of the Regulations), or the receipt of the email by the User with reservation details (§ 2.3 of
    the Regulations).
    d) To conclude the Agreement, the User must pay:
    i) the Administrative Fee, subject to letter g) below, and
    ii) the Deposit depending on the selected rental option, in full, or in the case of
    circumstances described in letter f) below – the remaining amount indicated by the Lessor.
    The payment of the Deposit and the Administrative Fee is made to the Lessor’s bank
    account by the deadline indicated in the Application. The Parties may agree to different
    deadlines for the User to pay the Deposit and the Administrative Fee.
    e) If the User, seeking to conclude the Agreement as described in this paragraph, has already
    made a payment as a deposit for a rental agreement for another Room or apartment in
    Nextdoor Kraków or for the same Room or apartment, and the Agreement is being
    concluded for a subsequent, directly following rental period, the User is obligated to pay only
    the difference between the full amount of the Deposit applicable for the Agreement and the
    amount of the deposit paid for the previous rental agreement, which would be refunded
    according to § 9 section 5 of the Regulations.
    By concluding the Agreement in accordance with the Regulations, the User simultaneously
    agrees to the possible accounting by the Lessor of the previously paid refundable deposit
    towards the Deposit.
    The User will be informed by the Lessor of the amount of the missing portion of the Deposit
    no later than fourteen (14) days after the end of the previous agreement, and the User is
    obligated to pay the indicated missing portion of the Deposit within the next two (2) days.
    Within this period, the User may dispute the amount of the missing portion of the Deposit
    indicated by the Lessor, which must be done in writing. If the User successfully disputes the
    amount of the missing portion of the Deposit indicated by the Lessor, the provisions of this
    point will not apply, and thus, the settlement of the deposit paid under the previous rental
    agreement will be made based on the Regulations and applicable law. In this case, the User
    is obligated to pay the full Deposit within two (2) days of notifying the Lessor of the dispute
    regarding the amount of the missing portion of the Deposit.

~ 4 ~

The provisions of § 2 section 1 letter f) do not apply if the User concludes an additional rental
agreement, i.e., intends to rent more than one Room or apartment.
f) The Lessor reserves the right to waive the collection of the Administrative Fee from the
Tenant or a potential new tenant. In such cases, the payment of the Administrative Fee is not
a condition for concluding the Agreement.

  1. Subject to different provisions of the Regulations, a condition for concluding the Agreement is the
    Tenant’s payment of the Deposit and Administrative Fee within the deadline specified in the
    Regulations. If the User does not pay the Deposit and the Administrative Fee within the deadline
    specified in the Regulations, the Agreement will not be concluded, and the Lessor may offer the
    Room or apartment specified in the Agreement to another potential tenant.
    The Agreement is finally concluded:
    2.1. For Agreements concluded without the procedure specified in section 1 letter f)
    above: upon the simultaneous fulfillment of the following conditions: (i) payment of the Deposit,
    (ii) payment of the Administrative Fee, and (iii) no notification to the User by the Lessor of the
    inability to conclude the Agreement due to a lack of available spaces, a system failure beyond the
    control of the Lessor, or other extraordinary circumstances preventing the conclusion of the
    Agreement – within the next two (2) business days from the payment of the Deposit and the
    Administrative Fee.
    2.2. For Agreements concluded in accordance with the procedure specified in section 1
    letter f) above, and the requirement to pay the Administrative Fee: upon the simultaneous
    fulfillment of the following conditions: (i) payment of the Administrative Fee, and (ii) no notification
    to the User by the Lessor of the inability to conclude the Agreement due to a lack of available
    spaces, a system failure beyond the control of the Lessor, or other extraordinary circumstances
    preventing the conclusion of the Agreement – within the next two (2) business days from the
    payment of the Administrative Fee.
    2.3. For Agreements concluded in accordance with the procedure specified in section 1
    letter f) above, and the Tenant being exempt from the obligation to pay the Administrative
    Fee: if the User is not informed by the Lessor about the inability to conclude the Agreement due
    to a lack of available spaces, a system failure beyond the control of the Lessor, or other
    extraordinary circumstances preventing the conclusion of the Agreement – within the next two (2)
    business days from receiving the email with reservation details.
  2. The Lessor reserves the right to refuse to conclude the Agreement if, during the previous
    agreement between the Parties, any circumstances constituting grounds for termination of the
    Agreement without notice, as referred to in § 9 section 2 letters a-h of the Regulations, occurred.
    The Lessor will inform the User of the decision to exercise the right to refuse via email.
    Furthermore, the Agreement is considered not concluded if the Agreement process described in §
    2 is completed by a User/Tenant under the age of 16, regardless of any subsequent consents or
    confirmations of the Agreement by a legal representative.
  3. Keys to the appropriate Room or apartment will be issued at Nextdoor Kraków after all payments
    required for concluding the Agreement have been recorded and upon the signing of the Protocol,
    during the administration office’s working hours. Collection of the Room or apartment and key
    issuance can occur no earlier than on the Check-in Day from 2:00 PM.
  4. If the Tenant does not collect the Room or apartment on the Check-in Day or within the next three
    (3) business days and does not agree with the Lessor on another Check-in Day within that time,
    the Lessor has the right, subject to the provisions of section 6 below, to terminate the Agreement
    with immediate effect, sending the Tenant a notice of termination to the email address provided in

~ 5 ~

the Application. In such a case, the Lessor may retain the amount of the Deposit paid by the
Tenant due to the early termination of the Agreement at the Tenant’s fault. The Parties agree that
the above right of termination does not apply to the Tenant’s failure to collect the Room or
apartment due to:
(i) causes attributable to the Lessor, or
(ii) refusal to collect the Room or apartment due to significant defects in the Room or apartment
that prevent its residential use by the Tenant.
To avoid any doubt, the Parties agree that other defects in the Room or apartment (deficiencies)
that do not prevent the Tenant from using the Room or apartment for residential purposes cannot
constitute grounds for the Tenant’s refusal to collect the Room or apartment.

  1. In the event that the Tenant does not proceed to collect the Room or apartment on the Check-in
    Day due to a legal prohibition or restriction, caused by the Epidemic State, preventing the Tenant
    from traveling (including crossing the borders of the Republic of Poland) to collect the Room or
    apartment on the Check-in Day, the Tenant has the right to terminate the Agreement within the
    next 14 days with immediate effect by making an explicit declaration of intent to the Lessor via
    email.
  2. To collect the Room or apartment, in addition to concluding the Agreement, it is also required to
    prepare and sign a Protocol by both Parties.

    decisions,
    to the extent that such a reason affects the terms under which the Lessor provides the
    services specified in the Regulations or the provisions of the Regulations. The changes
    will be posted at Nextdoor Kraków and the Tenant will be informed of the changes via
    email.
  2. Subject to the provisions below, the new Regulations will come into effect 14 days after being
    posted at Nextdoor Kraków and after informing the Tenant of the changes via email.
  3. If the Tenant does not agree with the changes to the Regulations, they may terminate the
    Agreement within 14 days of being notified of the changes, with a one-month notice period,
    effective at the end of the calendar month. Until the end of the notice period, the Agreement
    will be governed by the version of the Regulations in effect prior to the changes.
  4. The Tenant acknowledges that in the event of an Epidemic State or other epidemic in the
    territory of the Republic of Poland, the Lessor may impose restrictions on the entry of the
    Tenant’s guests into Nextdoor Kraków, as well as restrictions on the use of the Common
    Areas, including the introduction of new sanitary requirements in the Common Areas in
    accordance with applicable legal regulations, guidelines, or recommendations from state
    administrative authorities.
  5. Neither Party to this Agreement shall be held liable for failure to perform or improper
    performance of their contractual obligations in the event of Force Majeure. If it becomes
    impossible to fulfill the obligations arising from the Agreement due to the occurrence of Force
    Majeure, the Party invoking Force Majeure must immediately notify the other Party of its
    occurrence and prove the inability to fulfill the Agreement due to the Force Majeure event. If
    such an event prevents the fulfillment of certain obligations, those obligations will be
    suspended for the duration of the Force Majeure event. Additionally, the Party will endeavor to
    fulfill its obligations as soon as possible.

§ 9. Termination of the Agreement

  1. The Agreement ends with the expiration of the Rental Period or is terminated (as a result of
    termination or withdrawal) in cases provided for in the Agreement. After the Agreement has
    been concluded, the Rental Period may be changed by mutual agreement of the Parties,
    made upon the Tenant’s request, expressed exclusively in writing or via email (both forms

~ 11 ~

under penalty of ineffectiveness). For this agreement to be effective, the Lessor’s consent is
required in writing or via email (both forms under penalty of ineffectiveness).

  1. The Lessor may terminate the Agreement without notice in the event of:
    a) the Tenant grossly or persistently violating the Agreement (or these Regulations,
    which are part of it) or, through inappropriate behavior, making the use of other
    Rooms or apartments in Nextdoor Kraków or the Property burdensome, especially in
    the case referred to in § 5 sections 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 of the Regulations,
    b) failure to pay or replenish the Deposit within the deadlines specified in the
    Regulations,
    c) the Tenant allowing a third party to use the Room or apartment without the Lessor’s
    written consent,
    d) the Tenant being late with the Rent payment for at least two full payment periods,
    according to the deadline in the Regulations, despite an additional request specifying
    a one-month deadline for payment; the notice is considered effective when sent by the
    Lessor via email,
    e) the Tenant’s failure to comply with the instructions in the statement contained in § 1
    section 8 of the Regulations,
    f) repeated improper use of the Room or apartment and/or the Common Areas as
    described in § 5 section 9 of the Regulations,
    g) the Tenant’s failure to comply with restrictions and orders introduced by the Lessor
    during the state of an epidemic or other epidemic in the Republic of Poland, based on
    applicable legal regulations, decisions, judgments, and guidelines or
    recommendations from government authorities,
    h) failure to collect the Room or apartment within the deadline specified in § 2 section 5
    of the Regulations, despite the Lessor’s readiness to hand over the Room or
    apartment to the Tenant, for reasons other than the presence of a significant defect,
    as referred to in § 2 section 5 points (i)-(ii) of the Regulations.
    The Lessor may terminate the Agreement via email, following a prior written warning
    to the Tenant, specifying the violation and giving the Tenant 7 business days to
    respond. This does not apply to circumstances specified in points d and h above. In
    the case of repeated violations of the same nature, no further warnings are required
    for the effective termination of the Agreement.
  2. The Tenant may terminate the Agreement in the event of:
    (i) failure to hand over the Room or apartment for reasons specified in § 2 section 5 points (i)-
    (ii) of the Regulations;
    (ii) the Room or apartment having significant defects during the Rental Period that prevent the
    Tenant from using it for residential purposes;
    (iii) gross or persistent violations of the Agreement or Regulations by the Lessor.
    The Tenant may terminate the Agreement via email, following a prior written warning to the
    Lessor, specifying the violation and giving the Lessor 7 business days to respond.
  3. No later than 11:00 AM on the last day of the Agreement, the Tenant must return the Room or
    apartment to the Lessor along with the keys and any additional equipment provided. In the
    event of a delay in returning the Room or apartment, the Lessor has the right to charge a
    contractual penalty of 1/15th of the Rent for each day of delay. This provision applies

~ 12 ~

accordingly in the case of relocating the Tenant in accordance with § 1 section 8 of the
Regulations.

  1. Subject to different provisions of the Regulations, in the event of the Agreement’s termination
    and the return of the Room or apartment and keys without any objections, the Deposit will be
    refunded to the Tenant via bank transfer within 14 business days from the date the Tenant
    provides the Lessor with a bank account number for the refund. The Deposit will be refunded
    in the nominal amount in PLN, as paid by the Tenant, and the Tenant acknowledges that the
    Lessor will not be liable for covering the transfer costs, including transaction or currency
    conversion fees. A Protocol will be drawn up upon the return of the Room or apartment, keys,
    and any other movables provided to the Tenant. Both the return of the Room or apartment,
    keys, and the preparation of the Protocol are possible during the working hours of the
    Nextdoor Kraków administration office.
  2. On the last day of the Agreement, the Tenant is obligated to return the Room or apartment in
    good condition, considering normal wear and tear, emptied of the Tenant’s personal
    belongings, and in good sanitary condition. If the Tenant returns the Room or apartment in
    unsanitary condition or leaves personal belongings behind, the Lessor is entitled to charge the
    Tenant for the actual costs of restoring the Room or apartment to proper sanitary condition
    beyond the amount of the Administrative Fee. These costs will be at market value, and the
    Lessor will not charge additional fees or markups.
  3. Without prejudice to section 5 above, if the Room or apartment and keys are not returned due
    to reasons attributable to the Tenant, the Lessor is entitled to withhold the Deposit as security
    for settling fees owed to the Lessor, particularly costs referred to in § 9 sections 6 and/or 9 of
    the Regulations. Reasons attributable to the Tenant include, but are not limited to, the Tenant’s
    failure to show up on the day of the return or failure to proceed with the return of the Room or
    apartment.
  4. In the event of termination of the Agreement by the Lessor without notice pursuant to section 2
    points a, c, d, e, f, g of this paragraph, the Lessor is entitled to deduct the Deposit against
    unpaid Rent or other amounts owed to the Lessor.
  5. In the case of:
    a) the expiration of the Agreement for any reason, or
    b) the Tenant moving out of the Room or apartment before the end of the Agreement,
    regardless of whether a formal return of the Room or apartment has been completed,
    or
    c) the return of the Room or apartment by the Tenant according to the Protocol after the
    expiration of the Agreement, or
    d) failure to return the Room or apartment or to vacate it as described in § 1 section 7 of
    the Regulations, and leaving any personal belongings in the Room or apartment, the
    Lessor is entitled to secure and remove the items from the Room or apartment and
    store them in a location of the Lessor’s choice, including a storage facility. The Lessor
    will promptly notify the Tenant via email about the location of the stored items and
    request their collection, setting a deadline of at least 7 days for this purpose. After this
    deadline, the items will be considered abandoned by the Tenant with the intention of
    relinquishing ownership, and the Lessor will have the right to dispose of them without
    liability for any damage to the Tenant’s property unless otherwise required by
    mandatory legal regulations, or unless the Tenant’s behavior indicates an intention not
    to relinquish ownership. If the Tenant does not collect the items and it cannot be
    inferred that they have been abandoned, the provisions of general law regarding

~ 13 ~

found items will apply. The Tenant will bear all costs of securing, transporting, and
storing the items, which must be reimbursed to the Lessor.

  1. The Tenant’s use of the Room or apartment after the Agreement has expired cannot be
    construed as an extension of the Rental Period under any circumstances.
  2. In the event that the Tenant uses the Room or apartment after the expiration of the
    Agreement, in addition to other obligations imposed on the Tenant, the Tenant will be required
    to pay the Lessor compensation for unauthorized use of the Room or apartment at the rate of
    1/15th of the Rent for each day of unauthorized use.
  3. In the event of termination of the Agreement due to the fault of the other Party, the non-
    breaching Party is entitled to claim a contractual penalty from the other Party in the amount of
    two months’ Rent (or the equivalent of the Rent due for the remainder of the Agreement, if
    less than 2 months remain until the end of the Agreement).
    § 10. Notifications
  4. In the event of a change in the Tenant’s details (including a change of delivery address or
    email address), the Tenant is obligated to immediately inform the Lessor of the change, under
    the penalty of, among other things, considering correspondence sent to the last correctly
    provided delivery address as effectively delivered. The Tenant is required to notify the
    Nextdoor Kraków administration office in writing or send an email to the Lessor’s contact email
    used for communication with the Tenant. In the event of a change of email address, all
    provisions of the Regulations referring to the email address provided by the Tenant during the
    conclusion of the Agreement will reflect this change.
  5. The Lessor is also obligated to inform the Tenant of any changes to the delivery address or
    email address, under the penalty of, among other things, considering correspondence sent to
    the last correctly provided delivery address as effectively delivered.
  6. Deliveries via email, except in situations expressly indicated in the Agreement, are considered
    equivalent to deliveries by registered mail or courier.
  7. Correspondence sent via email will be considered effectively delivered on the day the email is
    sent to the correctly provided email address of the other Party.
    § 11. Visa Information Obligation
  8. The Tenant (a foreign national) who is required to obtain a visa allowing them to enter and
    stay in Poland before arriving in the country, must inform the Lessor of the granting or denial
    of the visa immediately, but no later than 30 days before the planned handover of the Room or
    apartment, via email to: krakow@nextdoor-housing.pl. The Tenant must also provide this
    information to the Lessor upon written request.
  9. If the Tenant does not have a valid visa 30 days before the planned date of handover of the
    Room or apartment and does not present it upon the Lessor’s request, the Lessor is entitled to
    terminate the Agreement early with immediate effect by sending the Tenant a notice of
    termination to the email address provided by the Tenant in the Application.

  1. The Regulations are posted at Nextdoor Kraków in a visible place. The current version of the
    Regulations is also available at any time at www.nextdoor-housing.pl and may be saved by

    of the rights (including current and future rights, claims, and receivables) due to the Lessor

    or refinancing (i) the Lessor or (ii) the construction of the Nextdoor Kraków building.
