The Co-Tenancy Clause
What REITs, asset managers and retail tenants need to know in retail lease co-tenancy clauses for negotiations, due diligence and reporting.
What REITs, asset managers and retail tenants need to know in retail lease co-tenancy clauses for negotiations, due diligence and reporting.

A practical guide to drafting co-tenancy provisions that are fair, enforceable, and built to withstand the volatility of modern retail — from anchor store departures to portfolio acquisitions.
What Is a Co-Tenancy Clause?
In retail leasing, a co-tenancy clause (sometimes called a co-tenancy condition or continuous operation covenant) is a lease provision that links a tenant's rent obligations — or its right to remain open or terminate — to the presence and operation of one or more designated tenants within the same shopping centre, retail strip, or mixed-use development.
The commercial logic is straightforward: a specialty retailer or food-and-beverage operator who signed a lease predicated on heavy foot traffic from a major anchor — say, a department store or a supermarket — should not be bound to the same economics if that anchor disappears and the centre's trade fundamentals change materially.
Co-tenancy clauses are among the most heavily negotiated provisions in any retail lease. Landlords resist them because they reduce rental certainty; tenants insist on them because without protection, they absorb the full risk of co-tenants they cannot control. A well-drafted clause acknowledges both truths and creates a proportionate, time-limited response rather than an immediate windfall for either party.
A co-tenancy clause is not a get-out-of-jail-free card for tenants, nor should it be an unenforceable aspiration. It is a risk-allocation mechanism — and both parties benefit from getting it right.
A Balanced Framework
Before diving into drafting mechanics, it helps to be clear about what each party genuinely needs.
Landlords need: a narrow trigger definition, a long cure window to find a replacement, sole discretion on the replacement selection, a substitute rent floor to protect income, and no termination right for tenants — only rent reduction.
Tenants need: a broad trigger that captures dark store scenarios, a short cure window before relief activates, a meaningful comparability standard for the replacement, pure percentage rent with no floor, and an eventual right to exit if the situation is not remedied.
The negotiated outcome sits between these poles. The goal of a well-drafted clause is to ensure neither party bears unlimited, open-ended risk.
Defining the Anchor Tenant
The single greatest source of co-tenancy disputes is an imprecise anchor definition. Leases routinely name a specific trading entity without specifying what it means for that entity to be "present and operating."
A robust definition must address four dimensions:
Identity. The anchor is defined by legal entity name and trading name, with an explicit acknowledgement that corporate restructures, rebrandings, or transfers to a wholly-owned subsidiary do not constitute a departure — provided the same retail format and floor area are maintained.
Premises. The specific tenancy and minimum gross lettable area (GLA) — typically no less than 85% of the original GLA — should be stated. A partial surrender of floor space that materially reduces drawing power should qualify as a trigger event.
Operating Standard. "Open and trading" should mean: open to the public for retail sales during the centre's core trading hours on at least five days per week, carrying a full range of merchandise consistent with its format, and not operating as a clearance or liquidation store for more than 60 consecutive days.
Exclusions. Temporary closures for refurbishment (not exceeding 120 days), closures required by law, and force majeure closures should be expressly excluded from the definition of a co-tenancy failure.
Sample drafting language:
"Anchor Tenant" means [Entity Name], trading as [Brand Name], occupying not less than [X] square metres of Gross Lettable Area within the premises known as [Lot/Suite], and conducting retail trading operations open to the public for no less than the Centre's Core Trading Hours on at least five (5) days per week, with a full merchandise range consistent with the Anchor Tenant's format as at the Commencement Date. A temporary closure not exceeding one hundred and twenty (120) consecutive days for refurbishment, fitout, or rectification works shall not constitute a cessation of operation for the purposes of this clause.
Replacement Tenant Standards
What constitutes an acceptable replacement anchor is the second major battleground. Landlords need flexibility; tenants need a standard that is not illusory.
The clause should articulate a comparability test across several criteria, and give the landlord a defined period to satisfy it before tenant remedies activate.
Retail Category: The replacement must operate in a broadly similar retail category — full-line department store, full-line supermarket — unless the tenant expressly consents otherwise in writing.
Trading Area: The replacement must occupy not less than 75% of the original anchor's GLA, configured in a manner consistent with generating comparable foot traffic to the adjacent common areas.
Brand Recognition: The replacement should be a nationally or regionally recognised brand, or a demonstrably equivalent independent operator with a proven retail track record — not merely any occupant filling the shell.
Trading Hours: The replacement must trade during the Centre's Core Trading Hours on at least the same number of days as the original anchor.
Timeframe: The landlord must enter into a binding lease — not merely heads of agreement — with a qualifying replacement within the Cure Period.
Where parties cannot agree on comparability, the clause should provide for resolution by an independent expert appointed by the relevant industry body, rather than litigation.
Note on the "Dark Anchor" Problem: A growing dispute in modern retail is the anchor who technically retains possession but trades at minimal capacity. Clauses should include a minimum trading floor: if an anchor's monthly gross sales fall below a defined percentage of its 24-month average for more than 90 consecutive days, this shall be deemed a cessation of operation for the purposes of the co-tenancy clause.
Defining Substitute Rent
Substitute rent is the reduced rental amount payable during a co-tenancy failure period. It replaces the full base rent until the co-tenancy condition is restored or the lease is terminated.
Definition:
"Substitute Rent" means an amount equal to [X]% of the Tenant's Gross Sales for each calendar month during which a Co-Tenancy Failure subsists, calculated and payable monthly in arrears, subject to the following:
(a) Floor Rent: Substitute Rent shall not be less than [X]% of the Base Rent then payable under this Lease. A range of 30–50% of base rent is common in practice.
(b) Gross Sales Reporting: The Tenant must provide certified monthly gross sales statements within fifteen (15) business days of each month end during the Substitute Rent period.
(c) Reconciliation: At the conclusion of each 12-month period of Substitute Rent, the parties shall reconcile amounts paid against actual Gross Sales, with adjustments made within 30 days.
(d) Outgoings: During a Substitute Rent period, the Tenant's liability for Outgoings shall either continue in full, or be reduced proportionally to the ratio of Substitute Rent to Base Rent — to be selected at negotiation.
The percentage applied to gross sales is typically negotiated in the range of 5–12%, depending on the tenant's category and margin profile. A food retailer on thin margins will negotiate a lower percentage than a fashion retailer or jeweller.
Gross Sales should exclude GST, staff sales at cost, layby cancellations refunded, and sale of gift cards (though redemptions are included).
Cure Periods, Step-Downs, and Termination Rights
A well-structured co-tenancy clause operates in stages, giving the landlord a genuine opportunity to remedy the situation before increasingly severe consequences apply.
Stage 1 — Notice Period (Month 1): The tenant serves written notice. The co-tenancy clock does not start until notice is given, preventing retroactive claims.
Stage 2 — Initial Cure Period (Months 1–6): Full base rent continues. The landlord is actively seeking a replacement and must provide quarterly written progress updates. No rent relief is available at this stage.
Stage 3 — Substitute Rent Period (Months 7–18): If no qualifying replacement is secured by month 6, substitute rent replaces base rent. The landlord's right to pursue a replacement continues throughout.
Stage 4 — Tenant Termination Right (After Month 18): If the co-tenancy failure remains unremedied after 18 months from the original notice date, the tenant holds a one-time right — exercisable within 60 days of that anniversary — to terminate the lease on 90 days' written notice, by payment of a termination fee equal to three months' base rent.
Some leases add a second step-down in substitute rent (e.g., from 8% to 5% of gross sales) after month 12 if no binding replacement lease has been executed. This increases landlord urgency without creating a cliff-edge termination trigger.
Co-Tenancy in Acquisition Scenarios
The acquisition of a retail shopping centre is one of the most common contexts in which co-tenancy clauses become material and contentious. Buyers, vendors, and their advisers must map every co-tenancy provision in the tenancy schedule before exchange.
Scenario: Anchor Tenant Early Termination Pre-Acquisition
Suppose an anchor exercises an early exit right within 12 months prior to a centre's sale. The following questions arise at due diligence:
Have any co-tenancy notice periods already been triggered? If so, where does the cure clock currently sit?
Does the co-tenancy clause bind successors in title, or does it contain a landlord-assignment carve-out that purports to extinguish rights on sale?
Is the substitute rent period already running — meaning the buyer acquires a centre with a reduced income profile not reflected in the contracted rent roll?
Are any specialty tenants within their 18-month termination window? This is a contingent liability that must be priced into the acquisition.
Does any co-tenancy clause give the tenant a right of first refusal on a replacement anchor lease, creating a structural complexity for the buyer's leasing strategy?
From a buyer's perspective, the acquisition contract should include seller warranties that: (a) no co-tenancy failure notice has been served and not disclosed; (b) no substitute rent period is running; and (c) no tenant is within the termination election window.
From a seller's perspective, co-tenancy exposure should be disclosed proactively in the information memorandum. Failure to do so can constitute a material misrepresentation of the income profile.
From a tenants' perspective, they should be protected in a sale or assignment.
Successor Binding Language: "The obligations of the Landlord under this clause are binding on the Landlord's successors in title, assigns, and any person who acquires the Landlord's interest in the Shopping Centre, whether by asset sale, share sale, mortgage enforcement, or otherwise. A Tenant's rights under this clause shall not be diminished or extinguished by any change in ownership of the Shopping Centre."
Portfolio Cross-Dependencies
For institutional landlords managing a portfolio of retail assets, co-tenancy clauses create systemic interdependencies that are rarely visible until a large anchor makes a portfolio-wide decision — closing 20 stores simultaneously — and triggers co-tenancy events across multiple assets at once.
The Cascade Risk: A national department store with anchor leases across 15 centers in a single REIT's portfolio can, with one board decision, trigger 15 simultaneous co-tenancy clocks. Depending on drafting, the landlord may face concurrent substitute rent periods, simultaneous cure obligations, and — at the 18-month mark — a wave of specialty tenant terminations that dramatically restructures the portfolio's income profile.
Portfolio landlords should maintain a co-tenancy dependency register that maps, for each asset: which tenants hold co-tenancy rights and against which anchor; the notice date, cure period expiry, and substitute rent commencement date; the aggregate base rent at risk; the date from which each affected tenant holds a termination right; and any lease cross-references where a co-tenancy clause references an anchor whose own lease contains early exit or redevelopment rights.
Interaction with Redevelopment Clauses: Co-tenancy provisions must be read alongside redevelopment and demolition clauses. If a landlord declines to exercise a redevelopment right precisely because doing so would trigger co-tenancy events, that constraint should be identified in portfolio strategy planning. Development feasibility analyses must account for rental income loss during any anchor transition period.
REIT and Fund Disclosure: For listed REITs and unlisted wholesale funds, co-tenancy exposure that is material to distribution forecasts should be disclosed in product disclosure statements and investor updates. The co-tenancy dependency register is not merely an asset management tool — it is a governance and disclosure obligation.
The Complete Drafting Checklist
Before executing any retail lease with co-tenancy provisions, confirm each of the following is clearly addressed:
Anchor Identity — named entity, trading name, company number, floor area threshold, and format description
Operating Standard — minimum trading days and hours, merchandise range, dark store threshold
Trigger Events — exhaustive list including partial closure, format change, and dark anchor scenarios
Exclusions — refurbishment closures, force majeure, legal closure requirements
Notice Mechanism — form, recipient, and clock-start date
Replacement Standard — category, GLA threshold, brand recognition, trading hours, and timeframe
Cure Period — duration, landlord reporting obligations, and step-down mechanics
Substitute Rent — percentage, floor, gross sales definition, reporting, and reconciliation
Outgoings Treatment — whether outgoings continue, reduce, or suspend during substitute rent
Termination Right — trigger date, election window, notice period, and termination fee
Dispute Resolution — independent expert mechanism for comparability disputes
Successor Binding — explicit obligation on successor landlords; no extinguishment on assignment
Acquisition Disclosure — vendor warranty obligations; escrow mechanism where live events exist at settlement
Closing
Co-tenancy clauses will only become more important as the retail landscape continues its structural evolution — with anchor formats consolidating, department stores repositioning, and the line between physical and digital retail blurring.
A clause drafted with care and commercial precision is an investment in the long-term health of the landlord-tenant relationship. One drafted carelessly is a deferred dispute.
Both parties are best served by addressing the hard questions at heads of agreement stage, before the pressure of lease execution compresses the negotiation into a binary take-it-or-leave-it. The framework in this article provides a starting point — not a substitute for specialist legal advice tailored to the specific asset, tenant mix, and market context.
