This standard document grants an underlease of the whole of premises that are let by a superior lease. It incorporates the clauses of the superior lease by reference which avoids repeating each individual clause.

This standard document will not be suitable for use in all cases. It should only be used where the superior lease is a reasonably modern commercial market rental lease. It should not be used as an underlease of part of the premises let by the superior lease.

NOTE (January 2021): We have removed the FastDraft “Start drafting” button from this document. This is because the complexities of drafting an underlease by reference and changes made to the underlying document made FastDraft automation unsuitable. You will still have access to any underleases of whole by reference you have already drafted using FastDraft.
