Warehouse Sublease Agreement Template

WAREHOUSE SUBLEASE AGREEMENT TEMPLATE FAQ

What is a warehouse sublease agreement?

A Warehouse Sublease Agreement is a contract where an existing tenant (the “Sublessor”) rents all or part of its leased warehouse space to another party (the “Subtenant”). The Subtenant’s rights are generally subject to the original lease (the “Master Lease”) and may also require the landlord’s written consent.

Do you need the landlord’s consent to sublease?

Often yes. Many commercial leases prohibit subleasing without landlord consent. This template includes a landlord consent section and requires the Subtenant to comply with the Master Lease terms.

What should be included in a warehouse sublease?

Common terms include: description of the subleased space, sublease term, rent and deposit, permitted use and prohibited materials, access rules, utilities and maintenance responsibilities, compliance with laws, insurance, indemnity, default and remedies, and how sublease ends if the master lease ends.

What happens if the master lease ends early?

In many subleases, the sublease automatically ends when the master lease ends (because the sublessor no longer has rights to the space). This template includes an automatic termination clause tied to the master lease.

Who is responsible for repairs and damages?

Usually the subtenant is responsible for damage they cause and routine upkeep of the subleased space. Structural repairs are often handled by the landlord or master tenant under the master lease. This template includes selectable responsibilities.
