SYNOPSIS PARTIES CONSIDERATION COVENANTS ENTERED INTO BY THE LESSEE COVENANTS BY THE LESSOR PROVISO FOR RE-ENTRY PRECEDENTS • Agreement of Lease
Parties A lease must be executed by both lessor and lessee. An instrument signed by the lessor alone or lessee alone, in the eyes of law, would be a mere agreement to lease. It was general practice in Punjab that a lease was executed solely by a lessee. This practice was rendered illegal by the Transfer of Property Amendment Act, 1929, which had added third paragraph to section 107. This paragraph runs as follows:— “Where a lease of immovable property is made by a registered instrument such instrument, or where there are more instruments than one, each such instrument shall be executed by both the lessor and lessee”. Consideration Consideration for lease would be the rent reserved or payable thereunder as well as under the covenants entered into by the lessee. Covenants entered into by the lessee These covenants vary according to the nature of the property leased and the purpose for which the lease is made. More important of these may be summarized: (i) Covenant to pay a rent on a fixed period; (ii) Covenant to repair; The lessor is under no liability to repair the lease-hold premises in the absence of a covenant to the contrary. Section 108(m) of the Transfer of Property Act, shows that the liability to repair is that of the lessee. If a lessor who is liable to make, within a reasonable time after notice, any repairs which he is bound to make, to the property, the lessee may make
the same himself and deduct the expenses of such repairs with interest from the rent or otherwise recover it from lessor, (section 108(f), Transfer of Property Act); Covenant not to sublet or assign the lease without the written consent of the lessor; If there is a condition of forfeiture in the lease on branch of this covenant and the lessee commits default, the lessor is entitled to enforce this condition and the court cannot believe him. (See section 114A, Transfer of Property Act); Covenant to pay rates and taxes but not the property tax which generally falls on the landlord; to permit the lessor or his servants to enter at reasonable time to inspect the condition of the property; Not to commit any nuisance or noisome trade or business; To insure; After the expiry of the term of the lease to hand over the lease hold premises in as good condition as it was at the beginning of the lease barring ordinary wear and tear.
Covenants by the lessor This generally provides that if the lessee performs the covenants entered into by him, he will have quiet and undisturbed possession without any interruption by the lessor of any person claiming through him. Proviso for re-entry This is the forfeiture clause. This provides that if the lessee does not pay the rent reserved or commits default in observing or performing other terms, the lessor may avoid the lease and enter into possession. The forfeiture clause about non-payment of rent must be read in the light of provision of section 114 of the Transfer of Property Act, according to which the court has discretion to grant relief to the lessee under certain circumstances. Section 114A of the said Act, requires the lessor before enforcing such a clause in other cases to serve the lessee with a notice specifying the particular breach complained of and requiring him remedy if it is capable of remedy and it is only when he failed, that a suit for enforcing such a condition can lie.

18.2 Requirements On redelivery:— (1) Schedule 7 shall apply and the Lessee shall comply and ensure the Aircraft complies with its provisions; (2) the condition of the Aircraft shall be such as to demonstrate that the Lessee has in all respects complied with the obligations on its part contained in this Agreement; (3) the Engines shall be installed on the Aircraft; (4) the Aircraft shall be free and clear of all Encumbrances other than any Lessor’s encumbrance; 18.3 Final inspection (1) Notice: the Lessee shall notify the Lessor of the expected commencement
date of the return inspection (“Final Inspection”) of the Aircraft not later than 25 Banking Days prior to the expected commencement of the return C or D-Check referred to in clause 1.1(6) of Schedule 7, such scheduled commencement to be finalized 3 Banking Days prior to the actual scheduled commencement. In addition, the Lessor and its duly appointed representatives shall be permitted to be in attendance during the performance of such return C or D-Check.

substantial part of its respective property or assets under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar applicable law, (b) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, examiner, administrator, custodian, sequestrator or similar official for the Lessee or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or for a substantial part of its respective property or assets or (c) the liquidation, reorganisation, dissolution or winding up of the Lessee or the Guarantor, as the case may be,; and such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed for 45 days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing is made, provided however that to the extent the Lessee or the Guarantor, as the case may be, can demonstrate to the Lessor’s satisfaction (the Lessor acting reasonably and after consultation with independent English counsel) that any such action is frivolous, vexatious or an abuse of process of the court, then such action shall not be regarded as falling within this clause 20.1(7); or there occurs, in relation to the Lessee or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in any country or territory in which any of them carries on business, or to the jurisdiction of whose courts any part of their respective assets is subject, any event which, in the reasonable opinion of the Lessor, appears in that country or territory to correspond with, or have an effect equivalent or similar to, any of the events mentioned in clause 20.1(6), 20.1(7), 20.1(8) or 20.1(9), or the Lessee or the Guarantor, as the case may be, otherwise becomes subject in any such country or territory to the operation of any law relating to insolvency, bankruptcy or liquidation; (8) Cessation of business: the Lessee or the Guarantor suspends or ceases to carry on a substantial part of its business; or (9) Nationalisation: all or a material part of the undertakings, assets, rights or revenues of, or shares or other ownership interests in, the Lessee or the Guarantor are seized, nationalised, expropriated or compulsorily acquired by or under the authority of any Government Entity; or Article 20: Lessor’s Rights following a termination event 20.1 Rights At any time after the occurrence of any Termination Event (and provided that the same is continuing) the Lessor may, by notice to the Lessee, immediately terminate the Lease Period (whereupon, as the Lessee hereby agrees and acknowledges, the Lessee’s right, to possess and operate the Aircraft, along with any other interest provided under this Agreement, shall terminate) and retake possession of the Aircraft (and the Lessee shall immediately return the Aircraft to the Lessor in the condition required by this Agreement (including clause 19 and Schedule 7)), and the Lessee agrees that the Lessor may for this purpose enter upon any premises where the Aircraft or any part thereof may be located, and, subject to the Lessor’s duty to mitigate, the Lessee shall pay to the Lessor forthwith upon such termination (or where any sums cannot be then determined by the Lessor or where the Lease Period has already terminated, upon determination)
such sum as shall equal the aggregate of: (1) all amounts due under the Lessee Documents as shall then be due and payable and remain outstanding; (2) all losses incurred by the Lessor in connection with such Termination Event including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (x) all costs and expenses incurred in recovering possession of the Aircraft, and in carrying out any works or modifications required to bring the Aircraft up to the condition required by this Agreement upon redelivery and (y) any loss suffered by the Lessor because of the Lessor’s inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another lessee on terms as favourable to the Lessor as this Agreement or because whatever use, if any, to which the Lessor is able to put the Aircraft upon its return to the Lessor, or the funds arising upon a sale or other disposal of the Aircraft, does not yield to the Lessor revenue or income equivalent to the sums which would otherwise have been recoverable by it under or pursuant to this Agreement had the Lessee returned the Aircraft to the Lessor strictly in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; (3) any loss suffered by the Lessor because of the Lessor’s inability to place the Aircraft on lease with another lessee on terms as favourable to the Lessor as this Agreement or because whatever use, if any, to which the Lessor is able to put the Aircraft upon its return to the Lessor, or the funds arising upon a sale or other disposal of the Aircraft, does not yield to the Lessor revenue or income equivalent to the sums which would otherwise have been recoverable by it under or pursuant to this Agreement had the Lease Period not been terminated; (4) any losses, premium, penalty or expense which may be incurred in repaying funds raised to finance the Aircraft or in unwinding any swap, forward interest rate agreement or other financial instrument relating in whole or in part to the Lessor’s financing of the Aircraft ; and (5) all liabilities, losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Lessor under agreements with any Relevant Party providing finance to the Lessor in connection with, or as a consequence of, such termination.
20.2 Cure rights If the Lessee fails to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Lessee Document the Lessor may, without being in any way obliged so to do, or responsible for so doing, and without prejudice to the ability of the Lessor to treat that non-compliance as a Termination Event, effect compliance on the Lessee’s behalf, and if the Lessor incurs any expenditure in effecting such compliance the Lessor shall be entitled (without prejudice to clause 21.1) to recover such expenditure from the Lessee). 20.3 Termination on change of ownership If any single person, or group of persons, acquire (a) more than half in nominal value of the equity share capital of the Lessee or (b) control of the Lessee, in each

(2) No waiver shall be effective unless specifically made in writing and signed by a duly authorised officer of the Lessor. (3) Subject to clause 24.2(4), neither the single or partial exercise or temporary or partial waiver by the Lessor of any right, nor the failure by the Lessor to exercise in whole or in part any right or to insist on the strict performance of any provision of this Agreement or any other Lessee Document, nor the discontinuance, abandonment or adverse determination of any proceedings taken by the Lessor to enforce any right or any such provision shall (except for the period or to the extent covered by any such temporary or partial waiver) operate as a waiver of, or preclude any exercise or enforcement or (as the case may be) further or other exercise or enforcement by the Lessor of, that or any other right or provision. (4) clause 24.2(3) is without prejudice to clause 21 and to the time limits in clause 20 (for which purposes time shall be of the essence). All references in clause 24.2(3):— (a) to any right shall include any power, right or remedy conferred by this Agreement or any other Lessee Document on, or provided by law or otherwise available to, the Lessor; (b) to any failure to do something shall include any delay in doing it; and
(c) to the giving by the Lessor of any consent to any act which by the terms of this Agreement or any other Lessee Document requires such consent shall not prejudice the Lessor’s right to withhold or give consent to the doing of any similar act.
23.3 Time of essence Subject to the periods of grace referred to in clause 20, time shall be of the essence of this Agreement as regards any time, date or period, whether as originally fixed or altered by Agreement between all the Parties or in any other manner provided in this Agreement, for the performance by the Lessee of its obligations under this Agreement. 23.4 English language All certificates, instruments and other documents to be delivered under or supplied in connection with this Agreement or any other Lessee Document shall be in the English language or shall be accompanied by a certified English translation upon which the Lessor shall be entitled to rely. 23.5 Counterparts This Agreement may be entered into in the form of any number of counterparts, each executed by at least one of the parties and, provided that all the parties shall so enter into this Agreement, each of the executed counterparts, when duly exchanged or delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, but, taken together, they shall constitute one instrument. 23.6 Severability Each provision of this Agreement and each of the other Lessee Documents is severable and distinct from the others and, if any provision is or at any time becomes to any extent or in any circumstances invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, it shall to that extent or in those circumstances, be deemed not to form part of this Agreement or, as the case may be, such other Lessee Document but (except to that extent or in those circumstances in the case of that provision) the validity, legality and enforceability of that and all other provisions of this Agreement or, as the case may be, such other Lessee Document, shall not be affected or impaired, it being the parties’ intention that every provision of this Agreement or such other Lessee Document shall be and remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. 23.7 Delegation The Lessor may delegate to any person or persons all or any of the trusts, powers or discretions vested in it by any Lessee Document and any such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions and subject to such regulations (including power to sub-delegate) as the Lessor in its absolute discretion thinks fit. 23.8 Appropriation If any sum paid or recovered in respect of the liabilities of the Lessee under the Lessee Documents is less than the amounts then due, the Lessor may apply
that sum to amounts due under the Lessee Documents in such proportions and order and generally in such manner as the Lessor may determine.
23.9 Set-off The Lessor may set-off any matured obligation owed by the Lessee under any Lessee Document or any other agreement between the Lessor and the Lessee (each an “Other Agreement”) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by the Lessor to the Lessee, regardless of the place of payment or currency. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Lessor may convert either obligation at the market rate of exchange available in .................... (Name of the place) or, at its option, .................... (Name of the place) for the purpose of the set-off. If an obligation is unascertained or unliquidated, the Lessor may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate (of which estimate Lessor will notify Lessee along with documentation in support of the calculated estimate), subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained or liquidated. The Lessor will not be obliged to pay amounts to the Lessee under any Lessee Document or any other Agreement so long as any sums which are then due to the Lessor by the Lessee under any Lessee Document or any other Agreement remain unpaid and any such amounts which would otherwise be due will fall due only if and when the Lessee has paid all such sums except to the extent the Lessor otherwise agrees or sets off such amounts against such payment pursuant to the foregoing. 23.10 No implied waivers; rights cumulative (1) No failure on the part of the Lessor to exercise and no delay in exercising any right, power, remedy or privilege under any Lessee Document or provided by statute or at law or in equity or otherwise shall impair, prejudice or constitute a waiver of any such right, power, remedy or privilege or be construed as a waiver of any Termination Event or as an acquiescence thereto, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, remedy or privilege impair, prejudice or preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. No acceptance of partial payment or performance shall, whether or not expressly stated, be or be deemed to be a waiver of any Termination Event then existing or a waiver or release of full payment and performance. No notice to or demand on the Lessee shall in any case entitle the Lessee to any other or further notice or demand in other or similar circumstances or constitute a waiver of the right of the Lessor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. (2) Nothing contained in any Lessee Document shall be construed to limit in any way any right, power, remedy or privilege of the Lessor hereunder or under any Lessee Document to which the Lessee is a party or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Each and every right, power, remedy and privilege of the Lessor in respect of the Lessee under the Lessee Documents to which the Lessee is a party (a) shall be in addition to and not in limitation of, or in substitution for, any other right, power, remedy or privilege under any Lessee Document to which the Lessee is a party or at law or in equity, (b) may be exercised from time to time
or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Lessor and (c) shall be cumulative and not mutually exclusive, and the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other to the extent permitted by Applicable Law. (3) The rights and remedies of the Lessor provided in this Agreement and the other Lessee Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.
23.11 Non disclosure Lessor and Lessee agree that neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any information derived as a result of the discussions, negotiations, or any writing relating to this Agreement, including, but not limited to documentation or information delivered to either party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to any third Party, without the prior written consent of the nondisclosing party, except (i) as may be required by applicable laws or governmental regulations, (ii) as may be necessary in connection with any enforcement of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (iii) any disclosure to Relevant Parties, or (iv) any disclosure to any adviser to the parties hereto or the Relevant Parties.
