Subcontract Lease Agreement

"I need a Subcontract Lease Agreement for subletting part of my commercial office space in Manchester to a tech startup, with a term of 2 years starting March 2025, including break clauses and specific provisions for shared meeting room facilities."

Document background
The Subcontract Lease Agreement is essential when a tenant wishes to transfer part or all of their leasehold interest to another party while maintaining their obligations under the head lease. This document, governed by English and Welsh law, is commonly used when businesses need to downsize, relocate, or generate income from unused space. It must carefully balance the rights and obligations of all parties while ensuring compliance with the head lease terms. The agreement typically includes detailed provisions for rent, maintenance, permitted use, and termination rights, while incorporating necessary protections for all parties involved.
