What is a Lease Contract Agreement?

A lease contract agreement is a legal document put in place between a lessor and lessee. The lease contract typically stipulates the terms of leasing, which may include items such as rent amount, length of the lease term, security deposit, and more.

A business owner can use a lease contract agreement to help pay for equipment or property they need on a more long-term basis. The lease payments are typically paid in monthly installments, but can also be paid in lump sums, depending on what terms have been negotiated.

If at any time during the term of this Lease, the expenses for insurance or taxes and assessments change, Landlord shall, by written notice to Tenant, revise the expenses, and payments by Tenant subsequent to such notice shall be based on the revised expenses. In addition, within 120 days after the end of each calendar year or as soon thereafter as practical, Landlord will furnish to Tenant a statement of amounts payable for insurance and taxes and assessments for the calendar year just ended. If the statement shows an amount owing by Tenant that is less than the payments made by Tenant, the excess will be held by Landlord and credited against the next payment of rent (or refunded if the term of the Lease has expired and Tenant is not in default).

If Tenant fully performs the obligations under this Lease, Landlord will repay the security deposit to Tenant, subject to claims, if any, of Landlord. This repayment will be without interest, and will be made after the expiration of the term of this Lease, the timely surrender of the Premises, and after all obligations of Tenant to Landlord, including any that survive the expiration of the term of this Lease, are satisfied.

5. EXPENSES PAYABLE BY TENANT. Tenant shall be responsible for all costs of maintenance of Premises, pest control and any and all utilities used by Tenant.

If, Tenant fails to make the payments provided by this Section, Landlord, at Landlord’s option, may make such payments.

6. LATE FEE; INTEREST. Any Rent or additional rent, or any portion thereof, not paid by Tenant within three (3) days of the applicable due date will be charged a late fee equal to 5% of such amount.

defined under all applicable federal, state, and local laws) on or about the Premises. Tenant, at Tenant’s own expense, shall comply with all governmental regulations (“governmental regulations” mean all federal, state, and local laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations, including, without limitation, those related to zoning and land use) regarding the use and occupancy of the Premises by Tenant. Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, injuries, damages, costs and expenses, including the cost of investigation and defense (including attorneys’ fees and costs at all tribunal levels, including appeal and bankruptcy) arising out of or in connection with Tenant’s violation of this Section, including, but not limited to the use of hazardous or toxic materials on or about the Premises.

8. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING. Tenant may not assign this Lease in whole or in part or sublet all or any part of the Premises without first obtaining Landlord’s written consent, which may be withheld in Landlord’s sole discretion. A sale of the controlling shares of Tenant, as same existed as of the Commencement Date, shall be deemed an assignment.

9. INDEMNITY. Tenant will indemnify Landlord and hold Landlord harmless from all liability, losses, costs, damages, or expenses, including the cost of investigation and defense, that Landlord may incur with respect to any claim or demand arising out of or in any way related to Tenant’s use or occupancy of the Premises, or the activity of Tenant’s officers, employees, agents, contractors, suppliers, licensees or invitees thereon.

10. INSURANCE; CASUALTY. Throughout the entire Term of this Lease, Tenant will obtain and maintain in good standing, at Tenant’s expense: (a) public liability insurance with respect to the Premises, and the business operated by Tenant, with such insurance companies and in such form as are acceptable to Landlord with minimum limits with respect to bodily injury of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per person, and One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per accident or occurrence, and Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) with respect to property damage; (b) all workmen’s compensation or employer’s liability insurance as may be required by law. Tenant will have all liability policies endorsed to show Landlord as an additional insured with respect to all occurrences and no insurance provided under this Lease will be subject to cancellation or reduction of limits unless at least ten (10) days written notice is given to Landlord. Certificates of all policies evidencing the insurance required must be delivered to Landlord within five (5) business days of Tenant’s execution of this Lease. Tenant will furnish Landlord with a copy of Tenant’s policy or policies of insurance or certificates thereof, within ten (10) days of Landlord’s request for same. If Tenant does not comply with the provision of this Section, Landlord may at its option, cause insurance as aforesaid to be issued, and in such event, Tenant agrees to pay the premium for the insurance within five (5) business days of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s demand along with a fee of three percent (3%) of the annual premium for any such policy in order to reimburse Landlord for the administrative cost of coordinating and ensuring Tenant’s compliance with this provision, which such cost would otherwise be extremely difficult and impractical to determine with certainty. In no event shall Landlord be liable for any loss occasioned by fire or other casualty to personal property or fixtures of Tenant, its agents, employees, assignees, sub lessees, bailers, licensees, invitees or of any other person, firm or corporation upon any part of the Premises. Tenant’s insurance will provide primary coverage to Landlord when any policy issued to Landlord provides duplicate or similar coverage; it being the intent of the foregoing that in such circumstance Landlord’s policy will provide excess coverage over Tenant’s policy. Tenant is advised that Tenant’s personal property and fixtures are not covered under any of Landlord’s property insurance policies

11. CONSTRUCTION LIENS. Landlord’s interest in the Premises shall not be subject to any liens for improvements made by Tenant, and Tenant shall have no power or authority to create any lien or permit any lien to attach to the Premises, or to the present estate, reversion or other estate of Landlord in the Premises as a result of improvements made by Tenant or for any other cause or reason. All materials suppliers, contractors, and artisans performing on or about the Premises or any part thereof are hereby charged with notice that such liens are expressly prohibited and that they must look solely to Tenant to secure payment for any work done or material furnished for improvements by Tenant or for any other

13. ALTERATIONS. Tenant, at Tenant’s sole expense, may make non-structural alterations to and remodel the Premises, without the consent of Landlord.

As to any alterations or improvements that are made, Tenant, at Landlord’s election, will be responsible at the expiration of the term of this Lease or earlier termination for the cost of removing such alterations and improvements and restoring the Premises to the condition existing prior thereto, if so requested by Landlord.

14. ACCESS TO PREMISES. Landlord will have the right during normal business hours during the term of this Lease to enter the Premises for any purpose that does not unreasonably interfere with Tenant’s business operations. Notwithstanding anything in this Section, Landlord may enter the Premises at any time and without notice for any purpose in the event of any emergency. An emergency is any condition that if not immediately repaired could cause severe or irreparable damage to any property or any condition that poses an immediate threat to the health or safety of any person. Landlord shall also have the right at reasonable times and consistent with the terms of this Lease to exhibit or show the Premises to an insurance agent or to a prospective purchaser, lender or tenant.

15. SUBORDINATION. This Lease is expressly subordinate and inferior to the lien of any present or future mortgage granted by Landlord with regard to the Premises. On request of Landlord, Tenant will execute and deliver a subordination agreement in such form as the Landlord’s lender reasonably may require, though this provision shall be deemed self-effecting without any such separate agreement.

16. ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE. Upon not less than ten (10) days prior notice from Landlord or Landlord’s mortgagee, Tenant will execute, acknowledge and deliver a written statement certifying that this Lease is in full force and effect subject to such modifications as may be have been agreed to by Landlord and Tenant.

ten (10) day period, if Tenant fails to institute appropriate action to cure the default within the ten (10) day period and thereafter prosecute the action with due diligence and continuity; (c) the bankruptcy of Tenant; (d) Tenant making an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (e) a receiver or trustee being appointed for Tenant or a substantial portion of Tenant’s assets; (f) Tenant voluntarily petitioning for relief under, or otherwise seeking the benefit of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or insolvency law; (g) Tenant vacating or abandoning the Premises for a period of thirty (30) days or more; (h) Tenant’s interest under this Lease being sold or assigned under execution or other legal process; or (i) any of the goods or chattels of Tenant used in or incident to the operation of Tenant’s business on the Premises being seized, sequestered or impounded by virtue of, or under authority of, any legal proceeding, which seizure, sequestration or impounding shall, in the sole opinion of Landlord, materially affect the possible continuation of the operation of the Premises by Tenant.

b. Remedies Upon Event of Default. Upon any one or more Events of Default, Landlord, at its election, may exercise any one or more of the following options:

i. Terminate Tenant’s right to possession under this Lease and reenter and retake possession of the Premises and relet or attempt to relet the Premises on behalf of Tenant at such rent and under such terms and conditions as Landlord may deem best under the circumstances for the purpose of reducing Tenant’s liability; in such event, Landlord shall not be deemed to have accepted a surrender of the Premises, and Tenant shall remain liable for all rent and all other sums due under this Lease and for all damages suffered by Landlord because of Tenant’s breach of any of the covenants of this Lease.

ii. Declare this Lease to be terminated, and null and void, and reenter upon and take possession of the Premises, whereupon the Term and all right, title and interest of Tenant in the Premises shall end. The termination shall be without prejudice to Landlord’s right to collect from Tenant any rent or other sums payable hereunder which accrued prior to the termination plus all damages suffered by Landlord because of Tenant’s breach of any covenant of this Lease.

iii. Declare the entire remaining unpaid rent for the balance of this Lease to be immediately due and payable, and may, at once, take action to recover and collect the same either by distress or otherwise.

iv. Exercise any and all rights and privileges that Landlord may have under the Laws of the State of Florida, the United States of America, or both.

No re-entry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord shall be construed as an election on its part to terminate this Lease, unless a written notice of such intention be given to Tenant. Notwithstanding any re-letting or re-entry or taking possession, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for a previous default. Pursuit of any of the foregoing remedies shall not preclude pursuit of any remedy herein or constitute a forfeiture or waiver of any rent due to Landlord or of any damages accruing to Landlord by reason of the violation of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein. Landlord’s acceptance of rent or payments following any Event of Default shall not be construed as Landlord’s waiver of the Event of Default. No waiver by Landlord of any violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein shall be deemed or construed to be a waiver of any other violation or breach of any of the terms, provisions and covenants herein. Forbearance by Landlord to enforce one or more of the remedies herein upon an Event of Default shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of any other violation or Event of Default. The loss or damage that Landlord may suffer by reason of termination of this Lease or the deficiency from any re-letting as provided for above shall include the expense of repossession and any repairs or remodeling undertaken by Landlord following possession.

c. Surrender of Premises. If Landlord elects to re-enter, as herein provided, or if it takes possession pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law: (a) Tenant will at once surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord and Landlord shall have the right to remove Tenant’s effects therefrom using such force as may be necessary, without being guilty of trespass, forcible entry, detainer or tort; and (b) Landlord may either terminate this Lease or it may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, make such alterations and repairs as may be necessary in order to re-let the Premises, and re-let the Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such rent and upon such terms and conditions as Landlord in its sole discretion may deem advisable.

d. Legal Expenses. If it becomes necessary for Landlord to employ an attorney to collect any sums due to it under this Lease or to enforce any term hereof, regardless of whether suit is brought, Tenant shall pay to Landlord all fees and costs charged by Landlord’s attorney for such services. If suit is brought to enforce the provisions of this Lease, attorneys’ fees and costs shall be awarded to the prevailing party, including attorneys’ fees and costs at all tribunal levels, including on appeal or in bankruptcy. The terms of this Section shall survive expiration or earlier termination of this Lease.

e. Landlord’s Right to Perform Tenant’s Covenants. If Tenant fails at any time to comply with any provision of this Lease, Landlord may, without waiving or releasing Tenant from any obligations of Tenant contained in this Lease, pay any such amount or perform any act that Tenant is obligated to perform under this Lease, in such manner and to such extent as shall be necessary, and, in exercising any such rights, pay necessary and incidental costs and expenses, employ counsel and incur and pay reasonable attorneys’ fees. All sums so paid by Landlord and all necessary and incidental costs and expenses in connection with the performance of any such act by Landlord, together with interest thereon at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from the date of the making of such expenditure by Landlord, shall be deemed additional rent hereunder and, except as otherwise in this Lease expressly provided, shall be payable to Landlord on demand or at the option of Landlord may be added to any rent then due or thereafter becoming due under this Lease, and Tenant covenants to pay any such sum or sums of interest as aforesaid and Landlord shall have (in addition to any other right or remedy of Landlord) the same rights and remedies in the event of the non-payment thereof by Tenant as in the case of default by Tenant in the payment of Rent.

18. SURRENDER OF PREMISES. At the expiration of the term of this Lease, Tenant will, without notice or demand, surrender the Premises in as clean and as good condition as the Premises were in at the commencement of this Lease, reasonable use and wear excepted.

19. BROKER. Landlord shall pay all commissions and fees due to any broker, pursuant to Landlord’s agreement with any such broker. Tenant warrants and represents that there is no broker involved in this Lease on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant indemnifies Landlord from claims for compensation from any such broker.

20. CASUALTY. Landlord will have no obligation to repair or restore the Premises in the event of fire or other casualty. If Landlord notifies Tenant that Landlord chooses not to effect such repairs or restoration, Tenant will have the option, within twenty (20) days of said notice, to terminate the Lease, effective as of the date on which the damage was incurred, and the parties’ respective obligations under the Lease will terminate except for those that survive termination pursuant to the express terms of the Lease. If Landlord does elect, in Landlord’s sole discretion, to effect repairs or restoration, then during any period the Premises are untenantable, in whole or in part, as the result of a casualty, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall abate in proportion to the extent the Premises are untenantable.

21. EMINENT DOMAIN. If the Premises are taken in their entirety by the exercise of the power of eminent domain, this Lease and Tenant’s obligation to pay rent will terminate on the date title vests in the taking authority. If the Premises are taken in part and the remainder is reasonably suitable for Tenant’s use, Landlord may, in Landlord’s sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, restore the Premises or Landlord may terminate this Lease by notice to Tenant within sixty (60) days of the actual physical or deemed taking of possession by the condemning authority. During any period the Premises is untenantable as the result of a partial taking and to extent the Premises is not restored subsequent to the taking, Tenant’s obligation to pay Rent shall abate in proportion to the extent the Premises are untenantable or not restored. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease, Tenant’s rent obligation will cease as of the date of termination set forth in the notice. All compensation awarded for the taking of the fee shall belong to Landlord. Tenant shall only be entitled to business damages and relocation expenses to the extent such does not in any way diminish Landlord’s award.

Lease Contract Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jun 30, 2022

What is the maximum that can be sued for in TX small claims from a commercial landlord withholding security deposit in bad faith?

I recently relocated my office and the old locations’ landlord is withholding my security deposit in bad faith, no itemized deductions for any claimed repairs, and no supporting documentation for anything reasons they are using to hold my deposit. I would like to send a demand letter to them and then prepare for small claims. I just have a question on how much i am allowed to sue for. I heard it is something like 3x of the amount, plus all other reasonable fees. Would like some counsel here.

Kelvin R.

Answered Aug 2, 2022

Justice Courts have jurisdiction of civil matters in which the amount in controversy is no more than $20,000 (or $10,000 if the case was filed prior to September 1, 2020), exclusive of interest and court costs, but including attorney fees, if any. I presume someone has mentioned to you theories of treble damages recoverable under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) for knowing and intentional deceptive acts. While the DTPA is a broad, ranging statute, it cannot convert what appears a purely a breach of contract claim into a DTPA claim (in most instances) absent an separate act by the landlord. You should consult a contracts / DTPA lawyer who can help you evaluate the viability of your claims. Start with your lease agreement. Hope this helps. Kelvin www.roqski.com

Lease Contract Agreement

New York

Asked on May 17, 2022

Car Lessee dies

My Dad died early 2021 and he leased a car and the lease end date is in 2 days on May 18th 2022. I’m his son and I was with him at the lease signing in 2019. I basically drove the car for personal use and to drive my Dad to wherever he wanted to go and to his doctor’s appointments. After his death I applied for a lease transfer but was denied. The monthly lease billing statements after that now state my Dad’s name Estate. The car company never told me to return car so I kept making the monthly lease payments. I asked the car company if I can purchase the vehicle and they said I have to be the Executor of my Dad’s Estate. I said to them aren’t you acknowledging that I’m the Executor/Administrator by not telling me to return the vehicle and accepting my payments after my Dad died. There’s no way for me to become Administrator of my Dad’s Estate in time before the lease end date because of the Court case back log. Lawyer friends of mine say it can take months. A couple of weeks before the lease end date I decided to give it a try anyway and filed paperwork to become Administrator if my Dad’s Estate even though he really doesn’t have an Estate. I called the Surrogate Court office and spoke to a clerk about my situation and he said to enter the car lease in the personal property area on the forms. I’m waiting for something in the mail but don’t even know if my paperwork has been looked at yet. I need to become Administrator to purchase the car at the lease end price. If I don’t I can only purchase it by having the dealer purchase at auction and then sell it to me for thousands of dollars more than the lease end price. What can I do?
