Tri-Cor’s first point is that the trial court erred in finding Tri-Cor liable for rent on the space Alcide left vacant when it moved into Tri-Cor’s space. Tri-Cor argues that holding it liable for rent on a space it did not contract for is, as a matter of law, beyond the contemplation of the parties and unforeseeable. Centerline argues that Tri-Cor was obligated to pay these rents under Articles 12 and 13 of the lease, which state that Tri-Cor would reimburse Centerline for all “direct or consequential” damages if it should default. Centerline maintains that because the lease required Tri-Cor to pay “consequential” and “any and all” damages from a breach, its recovery is not limited to dam*503ages that are the “natural and direct consequence of the breach.”
