You agree that LSS shall hold the Security deposit as a security which shall be applied against any outstanding fees, charges and/or damages and all amounts which are or may become due under the terms and provisions hereof, including, but not limited to, the Total Charges and Damages. Upon becoming aware of any outstanding amounts to which the Security Deposit or any part thereof can be applied, LSS shall apply such amount(s) from the Security Deposit and provide an email confirmation of such to you thereafter. If, after a reasonable period of time has passed following the end of the Occupancy Period, LSS, acting reasonably, is satisfied that there are not and will not be any amounts to which the Security Deposit or the balance thereof could be applied, LSS shall return the Security Deposit or the balance thereof, as the case may be, to the party who first provided it, by way of a credit on the credit card or account supplied by you . Should the Security Deposit be insufficient to cover the cost of any outstanding fees, charges or damages, LSS will advise the Occupant and is hereby authorized to charge the outstanding fees, charges or damages against the credit card or account provided by the Occupant at the time of booking.
