Article L145-50 of the French Commercial code

The change of activity may give rise to the payment, by the lessee, of compensation equal to the amount of the loss that the lessor would establish to exist.

The latter may also, in return for the advantage provided, request at the time of the transformation, the modification of the lease price without there being any need to apply the provisions of articles L. 145-37 to L. 145-39.

The rights of registered creditors are exercised with their previous rank, on the transformed business.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L145-50

Le changement d’activité peut motiver le paiement, à la charge du locataire, d’une indemnité égale au montant du préjudice dont le bailleur établirait l’existence.

Ce dernier peut en outre, en contrepartie de l’avantage procuré, demander au moment de la transformation, la modification du prix du bail sans qu’il y ait lieu d’appliquer les dispositions des articles L. 145-37 à L. 145-39.

Les droits des créanciers inscrits s’exercent avec leur rang antérieur, sur le fonds transformé.
