contracts. 1. The provision of this section shall apply to any rental
contracts in which (a) such a contract was executed by or on the behalf
of a person, who, after the execution of such contract, entered active

renders it impossible for such person to abide by the terms and
conditions of the rental contract.
2. A person who enters into a rental contract for goods or services
not otherwise addressed by the provisions of this article, who enters
into active military service subsequent to the execution of such
contract, and where his or her military activation causes it to be
impossible for him or her to abide by the terms and conditions of the
rental contract, is entitled to cancel such contract at no penalty and
with a full refund of any moneys which may have been placed on deposit.
3. Any such contract may be terminated by notice in writing delivered
to the contractor by such person in active military service canceling
his or her rental contract within one week of his or her receipt of
orders to report for military service, and such notice shall include a
copy of the orders in question. Delivery of such notice shall be
