D. Lucy signs a listing agreement that fails to include a broker protection clause.

Smith's may be responsible for some expenses in terminating the listing prior to the specified date.
D. In terminating the broker's authority and opportunity to sell the property, the
Smith's may be responsible for some expenses in terminating the listing prior to the specified date.
Since the broker or sales agent will have incurred expenses in an attempt to sell the Smith's property, the Smiths may be responsible for some expenses when they choose to terminate the agreement early and withdraw the broker's
opportunity to sell the property.

D. The sponsoring broker is responsible for all actions of the licensees working under him or her and will be held accountable in the same manner as the licensee who has violated the code.
C. If the sponsoring broker is deemed to be completely unaware of the sales agent's illegal activities, the broker will be absolved of responsibility.
