Assign a Lease A tenant may not assign the lease without the landlord's written con- sent. The landlord may withhold consent without cause. If the landlord reasonably refuses consent, the tenant cannot assign and is not entitled to be released from the Lease.

In contrast, a license typically grants a right or privilege to conduct one or more activi- ties of a temporary nature on the licensor's property.

The alterations clause of a lease outlines the tenant's rights and obligations when undertaking any alteration work on the premises. The alterations clause also outlines the procedure the tenant must follow to secure the landlord's consent to any proposed alterations.
