The SM is protected in other ways, and a lease could be canceled, but the rate is a "preservice" issue, as Dan mentioned.
I have fielded that request many times. In some cases it is misinformation, and in others it is just an attempt to get something they wouldn't if they didn't ask. I suspect that somewhere, some bank(s) have lowered the rate for a transfer overseas.
What you need to be asking is, will you get paid by allotment, where will the car be, and remind them insurance is required.
