Repealed. “Usage of trade”. Section 1-205. “Term”. Section 1-201(42). “Party”. Section 1-201(29). “Lease contract”. Section 2A-103(1)(l). “Lease agreement”. Section 2A-103(1)(k). “Knowledge”. Section 1-201(25). Definitional Cross References: “Course of dealing”. Section 1-205. Cross References:Sections 1-205(4), 2-208 and 2A-208. Purposes: The section should be read in conjunction with Section 2A-208. In particular, although a specific term may control over course of performance as a matter of lease construction under subsection (2), subsection (3) allows the same course of dealing to show a waiver or modification, if Section 2A-208 is satisfied. Changes: Revised to reflect leasing practices and terminology, except that subsection (2) was further revised to make the subsection parallel the provisions of Section 1-205(4) by adding that course of dealing controls usage of trade.
