NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:, -

ARTICLE I, PARTIES, PREMISES, AND MASTER LEASE

1. Identification of Parties

Sublessor is the tenant named in the Master Lease and remains fully responsible to Landlord for all obligations under the Master Lease. Sublessee is the individual(s) who will occupy the Premises as a residential sublessee. If more than one person is Sublessee, their obligations are joint and several.

2. Master Lease Reference and Attachment

This Sublease is subject and subordinate in all respects to the Master Lease. A true, complete, and current copy of the Master Lease (including all addenda, exhibits, amendments, and rules) is attached as Exhibit A and incorporated by reference.

Sublessee acknowledges that Sublessee has received, read, and agrees to be bound by every term of the Master Lease as if Sublessee were the original tenant named therein, except as expressly modified by this Sublease.

Sublessor represents and warrants that:

1. The Master Lease is in full force and effect.

2. Sublessor is not in default under the Master Lease as of the Sublease Execution Date.

3. Sublessor has not received any uncured notice of default from Landlord.

4. The remaining term of the Master Lease extends at least through [[Master Lease Expiration Date]].

3. Premises

Sublessor subleases to Sublessee the residential dwelling unit located at [[Property Full Street Address, including Unit]], [[City]], New Mexico [[ZIP Code]] (the "Premises").

Included areas: [[Parking, Storage, or Other Areas Included or "None additional"]].

The Premises shall be used solely as a private residence by Sublessee and the permitted occupants listed below and for no other purpose., -

ARTICLE II, TERM

4. Sublease Term

The Sublease Term commences on [[Sublease Start Date]] (the "Commencement Date") and expires on [[Sublease End Date]] (the "Expiration Date"), unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Sublease or the Master Lease.

The Sublease Term may not extend beyond the remaining term of the Master Lease. Any provision that would cause this Sublease to survive the Master Lease is void. If the Master Lease is terminated for any reason, this Sublease shall automatically terminate on the same date.

5. Delivery of Possession

Sublessor shall deliver possession of the Premises to Sublessee on the Commencement Date in the condition required by the Master Lease and this Sublease. If possession is not delivered on time through no fault of Sublessee, Sublease Rent shall abate on a daily basis until delivery. If possession is delayed more than [[Delivery Delay Cap, e.g., 7]] days, Sublessee may terminate this Sublease by written notice and receive a full refund of prepaid amounts., -

Sublessee shall pay monthly Sublease Rent of [[Monthly Sublease Rent Amount]] to Sublessor on or before the [[Due Day]] of each month, without demand, deduction, or offset, at [[Payment Address or Method, e.g., Sublessor address or electronic payment instructions]].

Sublease Rent is due regardless of whether Sublessee has paid any amount directly to Landlord (unless otherwise agreed in writing with Landlord).

7. Payment to Landlord; Sublessor's Obligation

Sublessor remains solely responsible to Landlord for payment of all rent and other charges due under the Master Lease. Sublessee's payment of Sublease Rent to Sublessor does not relieve Sublessor of any obligation to Landlord.

If Sublessee fails to pay Sublease Rent when due, Sublessor may pursue all remedies against Sublessee under this Sublease and may also be required to pay Landlord under the Master Lease., -

ARTICLE IV, SECURITY DEPOSIT

8. Security Deposit

Sublessee shall pay a security deposit of [[Sublease Security Deposit Amount]] to Sublessor upon execution of this Sublease.

Sublessor shall hold the deposit in accordance with New Mexico law (NMSA 1978 § 47-8-18) and the terms of the Master Lease. Sublessor is solely responsible for returning the deposit (less lawful deductions) to Sublessee within the timelines required by the UORRA, thirty (30) days after termination of this Sublease or receipt of Sublessee's forwarding address, whichever is later.

Landlord is not responsible for the deposit held by Sublessor. Sublessor shall comply with all itemization and return requirements of § 47-8-18 with respect to Sublessee.

Sublessee acknowledges that any deposit held by Landlord under the Master Lease remains the property of Sublessor and is not transferred to Sublessee., -
