Sublease Terms

The Sublessee and Sublessor agree to follow all the terms laid forth below.

Rental Payment

Ensure you consider the Master Lease you have with the Vehicle’s Owner and that the sublease payments cover the balance of what you’ll have to pay for the lease.

The Sublessee agrees to pay a daily/weekly/monthly/annual amount of $(Amount) to rent the Vehicle from the Sublessor. This rental amount is payable on the 1st of each month. It is the sole responsibility of the Sublessee to ensure the Sublessor receives the payment by the 1st.

Should the Sublessor not receive payment by the 5th of each month, they are entitled to charge interest of (Percentage)%/a late fee of $(Amount) on the existing outstanding balance.

Duration

The agreement will commence on the (Start.Date) and operate on a flexible/fixed term, ending on (End.Date), unless both parties agree to renew the contract or when both parties agree to terminate the contract.

Sublessor Obligations

As you’re also leasing this Vehicle, you should clearly state your obligations to ensure you don’t default on the Master Lease. It’s very important to note that you can only sublet the Vehicle if you have written consent from the Master Lessor; otherwise, it’s illegal and can result in legal action.

Sublessor is the Lessee of the Vehicle by virtue of a lease (“Master Lease”), a copy of which is attached to this Sublease, and wherein (Owner.Name) is the Lessor (“Master Lessor”).

The Sublessor has the responsibility to ensure this sublease agreement is valid within the terms of the Master Lease. It is the sole responsibility of the Sublessor to ensure the Master Lessor is aware and approves of this sublease agreement.

Should the Master Lessor not be made aware and approve of this Sublease, no penalties shall befall the Sublessee upon the termination of this agreement. Any penalties Master Lessor imposes in this case will be the sole responsibility of the Sublessor.

At all times, the Sublease is subject and subordinate to the Master Lease. The terms, conditions, and responsibilities of the Master Lease shall be the terms, conditions, and responsibilities of the Sublease, except where the Sublease provisions directly contradict the Master Lease. Then, the Sublease shall control the Master Lease.

Note that the above provision is solely for terms like payment details, etc. You can’t add provisions that violate the Master Agreement, as it’ll render the sublease void.

​

The Sublessor will ensure the Master Lessor comprehensively insures the Vehicle with a reputable insurance company for the duration of this Sublease. The Sublessor is responsible for ensuring all standard repairs, maintenance, and services are carried out by the Master Lessor in a timely manner. The Sublessor is also responsible for organizing an interim vehicle of similar make and model for the Sublessee while the Vehicle is indisposed during standard maintenance repairs and other services.

It is the responsibility of the Sublessor to provide the Sublessee with a copy of the registration book of the Vehicle. Further, the Sublessor must provide the Sublessee with the option to replace the Vehicle with another one (1) month/year from the date of signing this agreement.

Sublessee Obligations

This section is to ensure that the Sublessee doesn’t violate any Master Lease terms and conditions. As such, you should clearly state their obligations, which are generally the same as your obligations in the Master Lease.

The Sublessee agrees to the following obligations for the duration of this Sublease:

  • To use the Vehicle skillfully and properly, and ensure only persons with a valid driving permit use the Vehicle;

  • To make no alterations to the Vehicle without the prior written consent of the Sublessor, or to remove any Vehicle components unless it is immediately replaced by the same component or one of the same model and make, or an advanced model of the same make;

  • To report within 48 (forty-eight) hours any damages or loss of the Vehicle to the nearest police and the Sublessor;

  • To carry the responsibility for any expenses related to fuel, oil topping, tire puncture, parking costs, and fines for illegal parking;

  • To only use the Vehicle within (State)/the United States of America;

  • To return the Vehicle in good mechanical condition to the Sublessor within (Number) days of the Sublease terminating, save for the standard wear and tear expected on the Vehicle.

Termination of Agreement

The Sublessee and Sublessor can terminate this agreement at any time by giving the other Party 1 (one) month’s notice in writing. At the time of termination, the Sublessor will refund any rental fees paid in advance within 30 (thirty) days.

​

Assignment and Change in Lease

This section is important as it ensures the car isn’t further leased and that the Sublessee isn’t caught in a difficult place if something happens to the Master Lease.

The Sublessor will immediately notify the Sublessee of any changes to the Master Lease or its eligibility. The Lessee agrees not to sublet or assign this Sublease to another party without prior written permission from the Sublessor.

Miscellaneous

Add any other terms that aren’t covered in this template applicable to your Sublease. This can include the notice procedure and force majeure clauses.

Force Majeure

Neither Party can be held liable if they fail to perform any obligations set forth in this Sublease if they are prevented from doing so by reason of force majeure.

Sublessor:[Sublessor.StreetAddress][Sublessor.City][Sublessor.State][Sublessor.PostalCode]​

Sublessee:[Sublessee.StreetAddress][Sublessee.City][Sublessee.State][Sublessee.PostalCode]​
