Guest should be aware that unauthorized “holding over” has been construed as a factor in establishing “malicious continuing occupation” of rental property that may entitle Owner/Manager to treble damages in any unlawful detainer action. Guest also recognizes that unauthorized “holding over” could be grounds in court as a cause of action for intentionally interfering with Owner/Manager’s prospective business position and guest agrees to fully indemnify Owner/Manager for any and all losses sustained as a result of any such “holding over” including attorney’s fees and expenses.
