Right of assignment

Assignment means in principle that a business tenant hands over his lease to a third party – with the landlord's consent. For example, when a business tenant wants to sell his business to another, where the lease is included in the sale.

The tenant assigns his rights and obligations in relation to the landlord,to a new tenant who enters the lease.

In its purest form, the assignment entails that the new tenant joins the (continuing) lease under the same terms.
