Burial plots?

My MIL purchased 12 spots in a catholic cemetery. She's offered for us to be put there with her. I flat out told her I'm not interested in being buried anywhere, ever. She gave us the contract to hold onto (pic attached) and I'm sitting here disgusted with so many questions.

(1) All rules and discipline of the roman catholic church shall be kept and observed?
(4) No interment shall be made of any person not a member of the grantee's family without the prior consent of the grantor?
(6 & 8) HIS heirs?

This is vague and I don't like how her name is listed as Kim and not Kimberly. Her boyfriend thinks he'll be dead soon and since they're not married (SIN #1) would he not be considered family (#4)? She's planned for her, him, and 4 of her siblings to be placed here. That leaves 6 plots! There is nothing in writing that these plots are to go to said brothers and sisters either. I really don't think she thought this through. Have any of you dealt with something like this?

My mother wanted to be buried with her parents, but the lot they were in was owned by my mother's cousin, so long before my mother died we had the cousin put it in writing that my mother had permission to be buried there and filed it with the cemetery commission. When the time came we were not able to reach the cousin to let her know that my mother had passed, but the burial took place as planned because we had it worked out in advance. If anyone wants to be buried in your M_I_L's lot, then should have her put it in writing.

I think you would have to convert and be baptized to be buried there.
