C13. leases and Transfers
A. Lease Notification
1. For a lease of a Pinto to be recognized by the Association,
whether for breeding, showing, racing, or other purposes,
a Lease Notification form, signed by both the lessor and
lessee(s), must be filed with the Association and the proper
recording fee paid. Show committees may only accept
a Lease Notification after it has been filed at the PtHA
office and official written confirmation from PtHA has been
received.
2. Owner of the Pinto and the person leasing the Pinto must
be current PtHA members.
3. The Lease Notification form must include the effective start
date of the lease with all Lease Notification forms expiring
automatically on December 31 of each year. Otherwise,
a Lease Notification form may be terminated by filing a
Lease Termination form signed by lessor and lessee. All
Lease Notification forms will be subject to an initial lease
fee and an annual renewal fee. All Lease Notification forms
will be assigned a lease number linking all parties listed on
the lease form by his/her PtHA membership number. Any
change in lease terms (i.e. dates, names, etc.) require the
filing of a new Lease Notification form with PtHA. Only one
lease may be in effect at a time.
4. An official Lease Notification form of a Pinto shall be
construed as bona fide temporary change of ownership
and authorizes a lessee to execute all documents
pertaining to the recognized activities of breeding,
showing, racing, etc., regardless of any limitations in the
actual lease agreement. The only exception will be that a
lessee is not allowed to transfer ownership of leased Pinto.
Enforcement against the lessee of limitation on use of the
Pinto is the sole responsibility of the lessor.

Such termination will be effective on the date the transfer
report is actually received in the PtHA business office.

– local, regional or national–– on a leased Pinto for Youth
