  • Lease: A contract transferring the use of property or occupancy of land, space, structures, or equipment in consideration of a payment (e.g., rent). Source: OCC
  • lease: means a transfer of the right to possession and use of goods for a term in return for consideration, but a sale, including a sale on approval or a sale or return, or retention or creation of a security interest is not a lease. See Alaska Statutes 45.12.103
  • lease contract: means the total legal obligation that results from the lease agreement as affected by this chapter and other applicable rules of law. See Alaska Statutes 45.12.103
  • lessee: means a person who acquires the right to possession and use of goods under a lease. See Alaska Statutes 45.12.103
  • lessor: means a person who transfers the right to possession and use of goods under a lease. See Alaska Statutes 45.12.103

Except in a finance lease, if the lessor at the time the lease contract is made has reason to know of a particular purpose for which the goods are required and that the lessee is relying on the lessor’s skill or judgment to select or furnish suitable goods, there is in the lease contract an implied warranty that the goods will be fit for that purpose.
