Contracts

A lease contract that requires the tenant to make improvements to the leased space is enforceable because it includes:

AA build-out requirement which is void under Tennessee law
BMutual obligations — the landlord grants use of the premises, the tenant agrees to make improvements✓ Correct
CAn illegal condition that transfers ownership interests
DA unilateral obligation binding only the tenant

Explanation

A valid contract requires consideration from both parties. In a lease with improvement obligations, the landlord provides the right to use the premises (consideration) and the tenant provides rent plus the obligation to make improvements (consideration). The mutual obligations make it enforceable.
