This Sublease Agreement (this "Sublease") is made on [[Sublease Date]] between [[Sublessor Full Name]] ("Sublessor") and [[Sublessee Full Name]] ("Sublessee"). Sublessor and Sublessee agree as follows., -
PART 1, PARTIES, PREMISES, AND MASTER LEASE
1. Parties; Defined Terms
"Sublessor" means [[Sublessor Full Name]], the tenant of record under the Master Lease described in Section 2, with contact information: [[Sublessor Address and Contact]].
"Sublessee" means [[Sublessee Full Name]], with contact information at the time of signing: [[Sublessee Pre-Move-In Address and Contact]].
"Landlord" means [[Landlord Full Name and Contact]], the owner or authorized manager of the Premises under the Master Lease.
"Master Lease" means the residential tenancy agreement between Sublessor (as tenant) and Landlord, dated [[Master Lease Date]], for the Premises, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit B.
"Sublease Term" means the period specified in Section 6.
"Premises" means the residential unit described in Section 4. Words importing the singular include the plural, and vice versa., -
2. Master Lease; Subordination; Incorporation by Reference
This Sublease is expressly subject and subordinate to the Master Lease in all respects. Sublessee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Master Lease (Exhibit B) and agrees to be bound by all of its terms and conditions, except as otherwise stated in this Sublease. To the extent of any conflict between the Master Lease and this Sublease, the more restrictive provision applies; where this Sublease is silent, the Master Lease governs. All obligations imposed on the "Tenant" by the Master Lease are hereby assumed by Sublessee to the extent they relate to Sublessee's use and occupancy of the Premises. This Sublease does not release Sublessor from any obligation under the Master Lease., -
3. Landlord Consent; Condition Precedent
This Sublease is contingent upon the Landlord's prior written consent as required by section 22 of the *Residential Tenancies Act*, SA 2004, c R-17.1 (the "RTA"). This Sublease does not take effect and Sublessee shall not take possession until the Landlord Consent to Sublease (Exhibit C) is signed by Landlord. If Landlord refuses consent or does not respond within [[Consent Response Period (e.g., 14 days)]] after Sublessor delivers a written request, either party may terminate this Sublease by written notice, with any deposit paid by Sublessee returned in full within 10 days. Sublessor shall deliver Landlord's request for consent promptly and in good faith. Landlord's consent to this Sublease does not release Sublessor from continuing liability under the Master Lease (Section 5)., -
4. Subleased Premises; Furnishings; Parking; Storage
Sublessor subleases to Sublessee the residential premises at [[Property Address, City, AB, Postal Code]] (the "Premises"), being the unit described in the Master Lease. Assigned parking space(s): [[Parking Space(s) or "None"]]. Storage: [[Storage Area or "None"]]. Furnishings and appliances included in the Sublease: [[Furnishings and Appliances List]]. Sublessee has examined the Premises and accepts it in its current condition except as noted in the Move-In Condition Inspection Report (Exhibit A). The Premises shall be used as a private residence only for Sublessee and the permitted occupants in Section 12., -
5. Sublessor's Continuing Liability to Landlord
Notwithstanding this Sublease, Sublessor remains fully liable to Landlord for all obligations under the Master Lease, including the payment of rent and the performance of all tenant covenants, for the entire remaining Master Lease term. Sublessee's failure to pay rent, perform obligations, or comply with the Master Lease does not excuse Sublessor from Sublessor's duties to Landlord. Sublessor shall take all reasonable steps to cure any default by Sublessee that would constitute a breach of the Master Lease, and may exercise all remedies against Sublessee provided in this Sublease and under the RTA., -
PART 2, TERM AND FINANCIAL TERMS
6. Sublease Term; Term Constraint
6.1 Term. The Sublease Term begins on [[Sublease Start Date]] and ends on [[Sublease End Date]] (the "Sublease End Date"), for a total of [[Sublease Duration]].
6.2 Master Lease Constraint. The Sublease Term must not extend beyond the expiry date of the Master Lease, which is [[Master Lease Expiry Date]]. Any provision purporting to extend the Sublease beyond the Master Lease expiry is void. If the Master Lease is renewed or extended, Sublessor is not obligated to extend this Sublease unless agreed in a separate writing signed by both parties.
6.3 Possession. If Sublessor cannot deliver possession on the Sublease Start Date through no fault of Sublessee, daily Rent abates until possession is delivered. If possession is not delivered within [[Possession Delay Cap (e.g., 7 days)]] after the Start Date, Sublessee may terminate this Sublease by written notice and receive a full refund of all amounts paid., -
7. Rent; Payment
7.1 Monthly Rent. Sublessee shall pay monthly rent of [[Monthly Sublease Rent]] (the "Rent"), due in advance on the [[Rent Due Day, e.g., "1st"]] of each month, payable to Sublessor by [[Accepted Payment Methods]] at [[Sublessor Payment Address or Account]].
7.2 Proration. If the Term begins on a day other than the first, the first month's Rent is prorated on the basis of the number of days remaining in the month divided by the total days in that month.
7.3 No Offset. Rent shall be paid without offset, deduction, or demand. Acceptance of a partial or late payment is not a waiver of any default or of Sublessor's rights.
7.4 Rent Flow to Landlord. Sublessor shall, from the Rent received, continue to pay all amounts due to Landlord under the Master Lease. The Landlord does not receive Rent directly from Sublessee unless Landlord, Sublessor, and Sublessee agree otherwise in writing., -
8. Late Charges; Returned Payments
Rent is late if not received within [[Grace Period (e.g., 3 days)]] after the due date. A late charge of [[Late Fee Amount]] may be assessed; any late charge must represent a genuine pre-estimate of the loss and must not be a penalty. A fee of [[NSF/Returned Payment Fee]] applies to any returned or dishonored payment (non-sufficient funds). Late charges under the RTA must be reasonable and may be disputed before the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service ("RTDRS")., -
9. Security Deposit
9.1 Deposit Amount. Upon execution of this Sublease (and after Landlord Consent is obtained), Sublessee shall pay Sublessor a security deposit of [[Security Deposit Amount]]. Pursuant to section 45(2) of the RTA, the security deposit may not exceed one month's rent ([[One Month Rent Amount]]).
9.2 Interest. Sublessor shall hold the deposit in trust and pay interest at the rate prescribed by the *Residential Tenancies (Ministerial) Regulation*, Alta. Reg. 269/2009, calculated from the date the deposit is received.
9.3 Permitted Deductions. The deposit (and interest) may be applied only to: unpaid Rent; damage to the Premises beyond ordinary wear and tear; costs arising from breach of this Sublease; or cleaning costs to restore the Premises to move-in condition.
9.4 Return. Within 10 days after the Sublease Term ends (or within 10 days of Sublessee's vacating if sooner), Sublessor shall either: (a) return the full deposit plus interest; or (b) provide Sublessee with a written statement of account itemizing all deductions and return the balance. If Sublessor claims the deposit for damages, Sublessor shall provide an itemized statement of repair costs within 30 days (RTA s. 47). Failure to return the deposit within the prescribed period may result in Sublessor forfeiting the right to claim deductions.
9.5 Move-In/Move-Out Inspection Required. Sublessor must give Sublessee the opportunity to complete a Move-In Condition Inspection Report (Exhibit A) at or before the commencement of the Sublease Term, and a Move-Out Condition Inspection Report at or after the end of the Term (RTA ss. 36, 40). Failure to conduct an inspection may limit Sublessor's ability to claim deductions from the deposit.
9.6 No Double Deposit. Sublessor may not collect a deposit from Sublessee in addition to any deposit Sublessor has already collected from Landlord, if and to the extent Landlord returned that deposit to Sublessor or it is being held for Sublessor's account., -
10. Move-In Condition Inspection Report
Before or on the Sublease Start Date, Sublessor and Sublessee shall jointly complete, sign, and date the Move-In Condition Inspection Report (Exhibit A), recording the condition of the Premises and all furnishings, fixtures, and appliances. Sublessor shall provide Sublessee with a copy within [[Inspection Report Delivery Period (e.g., 3 business days)]]. The signed report is the baseline for assessing any damage at the end of the Term. If Sublessor fails to provide the report or to give Sublessee the opportunity to participate, Sublessor may not claim damages from the deposit (RTA s. 38)., -
PART 3, USE, MAINTENANCE, AND OPERATIONS
11. Use; Conduct; Quiet Enjoyment
Sublessee shall use the Premises solely as a private residence and shall not use the Premises for any commercial, illegal, or nuisance-creating purpose. Sublessee shall not disturb the quiet enjoyment of neighboring tenants and shall comply with all applicable municipal bylaws, fire codes, and condominium or HOA rules (if any). Sublessor covenants that, so long as Sublessee pays Rent and performs this Sublease, Sublessee shall have quiet enjoyment of the Premises., -
12. Occupants; Guests
The Premises shall be occupied only by Sublessee and the following additional permitted occupants: [[Permitted Additional Occupants or "None"]]. No other person may reside at the Premises without Sublessor's prior written consent (and, where required by the Master Lease, Landlord's consent). A guest who occupies the Premises for more than [[Guest Stay Limit, e.g., "14 consecutive days"]] without prior written consent may be deemed an unauthorized occupant, constituting a breach of this Sublease., -
13. Pets; Assistance Animals
Pet policy (consistent with Master Lease): [[Pet Policy]]. No pet or animal may be kept at the Premises without Sublessor's prior written consent (and Landlord's consent where required under the Master Lease), except that an assistance animal required by a person with a disability must be permitted to the extent required by Alberta human rights law (*Alberta Human Rights Act*, RSA 2000, c A-25.5, s. 4). Sublessee is responsible for any damage, noise, or injury caused by an animal., -
14. Smoking; Cannabis
Smoking policy at the Premises: [[Smoking Policy (e.g., "No smoking or vaping of any substance indoors or within 3 metres of any door, window, or vent")]]. The use of cannabis is subject to the same restrictions and applicable federal and provincial law (including the *Cannabis Act*, SC 2018, c 16, and the *Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Act*, RSA 2000, c G-1). Sublessee is liable for any damage caused by smoking., -
15. Utilities; Services
Sublessee shall pay for: [[Sublessee-Paid Utilities (e.g., electricity, internet)]]. Sublessor shall pay for (or utilities included in Rent): [[Sublessor-Paid Utilities (e.g., heat, water)]]. Sublessee shall arrange and maintain Sublessee-paid utilities in Sublessee's name from the Sublease Start Date and shall not allow service to lapse. Neither Sublessor nor Landlord is liable for interruptions in utility services beyond their reasonable control., -
16. Parking; Vehicles
Only operable, currently registered vehicles may be parked in assigned spaces. Inoperable vehicles, unauthorized vehicles, or vehicles blocking common access are prohibited and may be towed at the vehicle owner's expense in accordance with applicable law and [[Parking and Towing Rules from Master Lease or Condo Rules]]., -
17. Maintenance, Sublessor
Sublessor shall, to the extent Sublessor is able under the Master Lease, maintain the Premises in habitable condition, ensure that heating, plumbing, electrical, and structural systems are in good repair, and arrange for timely Landlord repairs. Sublessor shall promptly notify Landlord of any deficiency in Landlord's maintenance obligations and promptly relay Landlord's responses to Sublessee., -
18. Maintenance, Sublessee
Sublessee shall keep the Premises clean and sanitary; properly use all systems, appliances, and fixtures; promptly report needed repairs to Sublessor in writing; replace HVAC filters, light bulbs, and smoke/CO-detector batteries; keep drains and plumbing clear of blockages; and maintain any yard, patio, or balcony in clean and tidy condition as specified: [[Yard/Balcony/Patio Maintenance Responsibility]]. Sublessee shall pay the cost of repairing any damage caused by Sublessee's, occupants', or guests' acts, omissions, misuse, or negligence., -
19. Repair Requests; Emergencies
Sublessee shall submit routine repair requests in writing to Sublessor at [[Sublessor Repair Contact Email/Address]]. Sublessor shall relay requests to Landlord within [[Relay Period, e.g., "2 business days"]] and shall follow up with Landlord to secure prompt repairs. For emergencies threatening life, health, or property (e.g., fire, gas leak, burst pipe), Sublessee shall immediately contact emergency services (911) and the Landlord's emergency line: [[Landlord Emergency Contact]], and shall notify Sublessor as soon as practicable., -
20. Alterations; Fixtures; Locks
Sublessee shall not paint, wallpaper, alter, install fixtures, satellite dishes, or additional locks, or make any structural changes to the Premises without Sublessor's prior written consent, and in all cases subject to Landlord's consent where required under the Master Lease. Any unauthorized alterations shall be removed and the Premises restored by Sublessee at Sublessee's expense before vacating. Sublessee shall not change or add locks without giving Sublessor and Landlord a key to each new lock., -
PART 4, RIGHTS OF ACCESS AND INSURANCE
21. Sublessor's Right of Entry
Sublessor (or Sublessor's authorized agent) may enter the Premises for any purpose permitted under the Master Lease, including inspection, repairs, showing to prospective subtenants, or emergency response, upon at least 24 hours' written notice given between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM (RTA s. 24), except in an emergency or with Sublessee's prior consent to a shorter period. Sublessor shall enter only at reasonable times, conducting inspections between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM unless otherwise agreed., -
22. Landlord's Right of Entry
Sublessee acknowledges that Landlord retains the right of entry under the Master Lease (RTA s. 24, minimum 24 hours' notice, 8:00 AM, 8:00 PM) and that Sublessee must cooperate with Landlord's lawful entries.

Sublessee shall, at Sublessee's expense, obtain and maintain a renter's (tenant's) insurance policy with personal-liability coverage of at least [[Renter's Insurance Minimum, e.g., "$1,000,000"]] and contents coverage of at least [[Contents Coverage Minimum]] throughout the Sublease Term, and shall provide Sublessor with proof of coverage on request. Each party waives claims against the other to the extent of insurance proceeds received. Sublessor's insurance (if any) and Landlord's insurance do not cover Sublessee's personal property or personal liability., -
24. Liability; Indemnity; Pass-Through of Master-Lease Defaults
24.1 Sublessee's Indemnity. Sublessee shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Sublessor from and against any and all claims, losses, costs (including reasonable legal fees), and damages arising from: (a) Sublessee's use of or conduct at the Premises; (b) any breach by Sublessee of this Sublease or of the Master Lease; (c) any damage caused by Sublessee, Sublessee's occupants, or Sublessee's guests; and (d) any default under the Master Lease caused or contributed to by Sublessee's act or omission.
24.2 Pass-Through of Defaults. Sublessee acknowledges that any breach by Sublessee of this Sublease that would also constitute a breach of the Master Lease may entitle Landlord to proceed against Sublessor, and that Sublessor's costs and losses in defending such a claim shall be recoverable from Sublessee under Section 24.1.
24.3 Sublessor's Indemnity. Sublessor shall indemnify and hold harmless Sublessee from losses directly caused by Sublessor's own breach of the Master Lease or this Sublease, to the extent not attributable to Sublessee's acts or omissions., -
25. Assignment; Further Subletting; Transfer
Sublessee shall not assign this Sublease, sublet all or part of the Premises, or otherwise transfer any interest in the Premises to any other person without Sublessor's prior written consent and, where required by the Master Lease, Landlord's prior written consent.

27. Default, Sublessee; Remedies
27.1 Events of Default.

27.2 Notice. Before taking formal remedies for non-payment of Rent, Sublessor shall give Sublessee at least 14 days' written notice to pay the overdue Rent (as prescribed by the RTA for non-payment; currently section 55 of the RTA). For other material breaches, the notice and cure period shall follow the applicable RTA provision.

Sublessor shall not engage in self-help remedies (lockouts, removal of doors/windows, utility shut-offs) except as expressly permitted by the RTA., -
28. Master Lease Default; Sublessor's Obligations
28.1 Sublessor's Duty. Sublessor shall not cause a default under the Master Lease by any act or omission of Sublessor alone (unrelated to Sublessee's conduct). If Sublessor defaults under the Master Lease for reasons unrelated to Sublessee, Sublessor shall promptly notify Sublessee and take all reasonable steps to cure the default to protect Sublessee's continued quiet enjoyment of the Premises.
28.2 Sublessee-Caused Default. If Sublessee's act or omission causes a default under the Master Lease, Sublessee shall reimburse Sublessor for all costs, penalties, and damages Sublessor incurs as a result (see also Section 24.1).
28.3 Master Lease Termination. If the Master Lease is lawfully terminated for reasons caused solely by Sublessor (and not Sublessee), Sublessor shall provide Sublessee with [[Termination Notice Period, e.g., "30 days'"]] written notice and shall refund all unearned prepaid Rent and the security deposit (plus interest) to Sublessee., -
29. Dispute Resolution; RTDRS

Claims outside RTDRS jurisdiction may be brought in the Court of King's Bench of Alberta (Calgary or Edmonton) or Alberta Court of Justice as appropriate., -
30. Abandonment; Personal Property
If Sublessee abandons the Premises before the end of the Term (as evidenced by removal of belongings and absence for [[Abandonment Indicator Period, e.g., "7 or more consecutive days"]] without notice), Sublessor may retake possession and dispose of Sublessee's personal property only in accordance with the RTA and applicable law, after giving any required written notice. Sublessor shall attempt to mitigate losses by re-subletting the Premises on reasonable terms. Sublessee remains liable for Rent for the balance of the Term, less amounts recovered from re-subletting., -
PART 6, TERMINATION EVENTS
31. Damage or Destruction
If the Premises is rendered wholly or substantially uninhabitable by fire, flood, or other casualty not caused by Sublessee, Sublessee's Rent obligation is proportionately abated. If the Premises cannot reasonably be restored to habitable condition within [[Casualty Repair Period, e.g., "30 days"]] after the casualty, either party may terminate this Sublease by written notice, and Sublessor shall promptly refund all prepaid Rent and the deposit (plus interest). This Section is subject to and constrained by the corresponding casualty provision of the Master Lease., -
32. Expropriation; Eminent Domain
If the Premises or a material part thereof is expropriated or acquired by a governmental authority under the *Expropriation Act*, RSA 2000, c E-13, this Sublease terminates effective on the date the authority takes possession. Sublessor shall refund prepaid Rent attributable to the period after termination and the security deposit (plus interest). Sublessee may separately pursue compensation for relocation costs to the extent permitted by law., -
33. Holdover
If Sublessee remains in possession of the Premises after the Sublease End Date without Sublessor's written consent, Sublessee is a holdover and shall pay holdover rent at the rate of [[Holdover Rate, e.g., "150% of the then-current monthly Rent, pro-rated daily"]] and shall be liable for all resulting losses, including any costs or damages suffered by Sublessor under the Master Lease. A holdover does not create a new tenancy or extend this Sublease unless both parties agree in writing; where required, Landlord's consent is also required., -
34. Surrender; Move-Out Inspection
On or before the Sublease End Date (or such earlier termination date), Sublessee shall: (a) remove all personal property from the Premises; (b) return all keys, access fobs, and garage openers to Sublessor; (c) leave the Premises broom-clean and in the same condition as at move-in (ordinary wear and tear excepted); and (d) participate in a Move-Out Condition Inspection with Sublessor at a mutually agreed time (RTA ss. 39, 40). Sublessee shall provide Sublessor with a forwarding address for return of the deposit and any correspondence.

Any court proceeding shall be brought in the Court of King's Bench of Alberta or the Alberta Court of Justice, in the judicial district where the Premises is located., -
37. Waiver; Non-Waiver
No failure or delay by either party to enforce any term or remedy is a waiver of that term or remedy. A waiver of one breach is not a waiver of any subsequent or other breach. All waivers must be in writing signed by the waiving party., -
38. Severability
If any provision of this Sublease is held to be invalid, unenforceable, or contrary to the RTA or other applicable law, that provision is severed; the remaining provisions continue in full force. Any provision prohibited by the RTA (including RTA s. 28, which voids prohibited terms) is replaced by the applicable statutory entitlement., -
39. Entire Agreement; Amendments
This Sublease, together with the Master Lease (Exhibit B), the Landlord Consent (Exhibit C), the Move-In Condition Inspection Report (Exhibit A), and any other attached schedules, constitutes the entire agreement between Sublessor and Sublessee regarding the Premises and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, and agreements.
