10 The award of   $800 is premised on section 13 of the lease, entitled “UNCLEAN/DAMAGED
CONDITIONS,” which states, “Should Lessee leave the apartment in an unclean or damaged
condition and Owner/Manager is unable to lease the apartment because of the condition, then
Lessee shall be liable for $100 for each day of lost rent.” While the standard for awarding this
amount improperly varies from the RLTA (as discussed in the text above), there is no argument
that $100 constitutes an unlawful penalty, presumably because it approximates the monthly rent. -14-
