Instructions
Verify that the original lease permits subletting (obtain landlord consent if required). Identify the sublessor, sublessee, and the portion of premises being sublet. The sublease term cannot exceed the original lease term. State the rent amount (which may differ from the master lease rent). The original tenant remains liable to the landlord for all lease obligations.
