- 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 N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code 2-A-103 - Lease contract: means the total legal obligation that
results from the lease agreement as affected by this Article
and any other applicable rules of law. See N.Y. Uniform Commercial Code 2-A-103
(1) A lease contract may be made in any manner sufficient to show agreement, including conduct by both parties which recognizes the existence of a lease contract.
(2) An agreement sufficient to constitute a lease contract may be found although the moment of its making is undetermined.
(3) Although one or more terms are left open, a lease contract does not fail for indefiniteness if the parties have intended to make a lease contract and there is a reasonably certain basis for giving an appropriate remedy.
