We are talking about a commercial space, so its not like he was hot-wiring a barn in the middle of a field, and the upgrades, if they were needed were not THAT expensive.

No, not $300k, but still a substantial chunk of it.  And I would be surprised if his requirements didn't require a lot of upgrades feeding into his space and the mall owners would make him pay for those too.  Especially given his rent free status.

Hopefully they can salvage the stuff for when they move.  Sucks they will have to dump several hundred K into basic wiring again when they do....
