Improvements and Alterations Sample Clauses
The "Improvements and Alterations" clause defines the rules and permissions regarding changes, upgrades, or modifications made to a property or asset, typically within a lease or property agreement. It usually specifies whether the tenant or user must obtain the owner's consent before making any physical changes, outlines the process for requesting approval, and may address who is responsible for costs and whether improvements become the property of the owner upon lease termination. This clause ensures that any modifications are controlled and documented, protecting the owner's interests and maintaining the property's value while providing a clear framework for permissible changes.

The Required Removables shall be removed by Tenant before the Expiration Date or earlier termination of this Lease. Tenant shall repair damage caused by the installation or removal of Required Removables. If Tenant fails to perform its obligations in a timely manner, Landlord may perform such work at Tenant’s expense.
