Hi,
If a hotel establishment has a hotel part and restaurant part. Now if the owner(first party) of the hotel only wants to lease out the restaurant part to a second party then what are the factors the owner must clarify with the second party.
If would be helpful if anyone can share sample agreement for such cases.
