Tenant Release Clause Samples

A Tenant Release clause allows a tenant to be formally released from certain obligations or liabilities under a lease agreement. In practice, this clause may specify the conditions under which the tenant is no longer responsible for rent, damages, or other lease terms, such as after transferring the lease to a new tenant or upon fulfilling specific requirements. Its core function is to provide clarity and legal certainty regarding the tenant's responsibilities, thereby protecting both parties from future disputes over ongoing obligations.
