(a) A lease contract may be made in any manner sufficient to show agreement, including conduct by both parties which recognizes the existence of a lease contract.
(b) An agreement sufficient to constitute a lease contract may be found although the moment of its making is undetermined.
(c) Although one or more terms are left open, a lease contract does not fail for indefiniteness if the parties have intended to make a lease contract and there is a reasonably certain basis for giving an appropriate remedy.
(July 22, 1992, D.C. Law 9-128, § 2(b), 39 DCR 3830.)
