(a) The forms under this head are for ordinary occupation and building leases and leases for business purposes. For agricultural and mining leases, see infra; and for variations for leases under powers and other special cases, see LEASES, MISCELLANEOUS. As to stamps, see the Stamp Act, 1870, schedule tit. Lease; see also 39 & 40 Vict. c. 16, s. 11.

(b) In accordance with the now very common practice the plan is adopted throughout the following forms of leases and agreements for leases of using the words "lessor" and "lessee," or "landlord" and "tenant," in place of the names of the parties, the former expressions being more commonly used in "lessee," leases (though they are open to some objection on account of the risk of clerical errors which the similarity of the words involves), the latter in agree. ments for leases. These expressions may be made to include the reversioner and the termor for the time being respectively by an interpretation clause placed at the beginning or end of the instrument, so as to enable the words "heirs and assigns," or "executors, administrators, and assigns," or other like words to be omitted throughout in the case of both the lessor and the lessee.

Benefit of lessec's

By the Conv. Act, 1881, s. 10 (extending 32 Hen. 8, c. 34), the benefit of the rent and lessee's covenants and conditions in a lease is annexed to and to go with the reversion expectant on the term (notwithstanding severance of the reversion), and may be taken advantage of by the person from time to time and entitled to the rents and profits of the land; and by s. 11 the obligation of obligation the lessor's covenants, so far as he has power to bind the reversion, is annexed to of lessor's and goes with the reversion (notwithstanding severance thereof), and may be covenants enforced by the person in whom the term is from time to time vested (see as to the previous law the notes to Spencer's Case, 1 Smith's L. C. 22, et seq.); see also the general enactment in s. 58, making the benefit of covenants relating to land run with the land although the "heirs and assigns" or executors, administrators, and assigns" (as the case may be) of the covenantee are not expressed, where it would so run if those words were expressed.

The effect of these enactments appears to be in all cases, whether the lease

is granted by an owner or under a power, to carry the benefit and obligation of the lessor's covenants and the benefit of the lessee's covenants to the reversioner and lessee respectively for the time being, as the case may be, irrespective of the form of the covenants, and to prevent technical objections arising in future in this respect; but it may perhaps be still necessary that the lessee should Covenants covenant for his "assigns" in those cases in which this was previously for necessary to make the obligation of his covenants run with the land (see the "assigns." notes to Spencer's Case, 1 Sm. L. C.), and also that the lessor should so covenant where his covenants are intended to bind the owners of adjoining land; these cases not being covered by the above enactments. With these exceptions the repetition throughout of the words "heirs and assigns" or 'executors, administrators, and assigns," or other like expressions, is superfluous so far as regards making the covenants run with the land; but sometimes (c.g., in providing by and to whom notices or licences are to be given) the words appear to be required. The most convenient plan, which is adopted in this edition, is to imply these words by means of an interpretation clause, and they are therefore for the most part omitted throughout the following forms of leases and agreements for leases, except that at the commencement of the covenants the lessee, and also where appropriate the lessor, is made to covenant expressly "for his assigns."

The following is a form of interpretation clause when placed at the commencement of the instrument, which is the better plan. A form of clause to be placed at the end will be found infra:

[and B. of, Interpre&c.], hinafter called the lessor [s], which expression shall clause. include his [their] hrs and assigns, or, for an underlease or a lease of chattels, "his [their] exs, ads, and assigns," or for a lease of any property under a power, "the pson or psons from time to time entled to the reversion of the premes hby demised expectant on the term hby granted," where the context so requires or admits, of the one pt, and C. of, &c. [and D. of, &c.], hinafter called the lessee [s], which expression shall include his [their] exs, ads, and assigns, where the context so requires or admits, of the other pt."

The above forms defining "lessor" are not adapted to a lease by mortgagor and mortgagee, or by a mortgagor under a power in the mortgage or the Conv. Act, 1881, s. 18, since where the property is in mortgage it is usually intended that the mortgagor should act in all respects as the lessor until the mortgagee enters into the receipt of the rents or sells or forecloses (see as to this the Judicature Act, 1873, s. 25 (5)). In this case a special form of in
