Operations by Less Clause Samples

The 'Operations by Lessee' clause defines the rights and responsibilities of the lessee regarding the use and operation of the leased asset, typically in a lease agreement.

This clause serves to clarify operational expectations and protect the lessor’s interests by ensuring the asset is used appropriately during the lease term.
