Description

This form is a general tenant's subordination to a lease or easement. Illinois Tenant's Subordination refers to the act of a tenant giving up its priority interest in a lease or easement to a different party, typically a lender or a new property owner. This subordination allows the new party to have a higher priority in terms of their rights and interests over the tenant's rights. There are two different types of Illinois Tenant's Subordination: 1. Subordination to a Lease: In this type of subordination, a tenant agrees to subordinate its leasehold interest to a lender's mortgage or lien on the property. This means that if the property is foreclosed upon, the lender's rights will take precedence over the tenant's leasehold rights. The tenant may be required to sign a Subordination, Non-Disturbance, and Attornment Agreement (SODA) to formalize this arrangement. 2. Subordination to an Easement: This type of subordination occurs when a tenant agrees to subordinate its leasehold interest to an easement granted by the landlord to a third party. An easement is a right to use a portion of the property for a specific purpose, such as allowing utilities access or granting road access to neighboring properties. By subordinating to an easement, the tenant acknowledges that the rights of the parties benefiting from the easement will take priority over the tenant's leasehold rights. In both cases, the act of subordination provides the new party (lender or easement beneficiary) with greater protection and priority in the event of a default or foreclosure. It is important for tenants to carefully review and understand the terms of the subordination agreement before signing, as it may have implications for their rights and obligations under the lease. Consulting with legal professionals experienced in real estate matters is advised to ensure that the subordination agreement is fair and protective of the tenant's interests.
