Brown University Student Television (BTV)

Equipment Rental Contract

This Contract is between __________________________, a Brown University affiliated entity, and Brown

University Student Television (BTV). No contracts will be made with individuals not affiliated with Brown

University.

By signing below, I agree, on behalf of my group, to take full monetary responsibility for any damages incurred

on the equipment borrowed during the time of my rental, as compared with the equipment status report at the

end of this document. I agree to return the equipment on time, under penalty of a late fee to be determined by

the executive board at the weekly Sunday meeting. The late fee may accumulate, and if the equipment is not

returned within a week of the reservation without arrangements for such, will be reported as stolen. If any

equipment is lost, I will report it immediately, within the day of my reservation, and if not found within a week,

will compensate BTV monetarily for the item. If any equipment is thought to be stolen, alert BTV before you

alert the authorities if it is prudent to do so. BTV will review the situation and determine a course of action, with

monetary compensation a possibility.

Damages and lost or stolen equipment are grounds, but not necessarily direct consequences, for suspension of

use of BTV equipment for the entire representative group or organization for an indefinite period of time. For all

cases, the group will be subject to the penal code, not the individual. The signee below will be the primary

contact.

In order for the late penalty fee to hold, BTV’s representatives must make themselves readily available for

pickup and drop off. If not, this will be taken into consideration upon weekly review, if necessary. All cases

under review at the executive board meetings will allow a written testimony from the party in review.
