All the HVAC modifications and structural modifications which do not require a construction permit procedure and which differ materially from the original condition of the building need to be returned to the original condition if the landlord so desired when the lease term ends.

In addition to this the tenant shall pay for other expenses related to the use and operation of the premises, such as snow removal, winter sanding and maintenance of the premises in neat, sanitary and clean condition free of trash and debris, so that the lack of taking care of these responsibilities does not cause damage to the users of the property and / or damage to the property itself. The tenant shall also insure its own property. However, the landlord is responsible for the costs of the property insurance and the property tax.

 

The tenant is also responsible at its own cost for maintenance of the leased property so that any damages and breakages to the property and/or equipment that are caused by the tenant using the property will be repaired immediately.
