I emboldened and italicized the "Provided that"s. I confirm that Tenancy Agreement has no punctuation before them. Indubitably they're not starting a new paragraph. Why's P capitalized in "Provided that"? Are these typos?

Yield Up the Said Premises and Handover

There is no grammatical reason for the capitalisation of the 'P' in this situation. It is used merely to merely emphasis the following condition(s) or, as you suggest, typos.
