If the lessee transfers his or her entire remaining interest in the tenancy, then the transfer is known as an assignment. If the lessee transfers only part of his or her interest, then the transfer is known as a sublease.
LESSEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT LESSOR MAY SELL, ASSIGN, GRANT A SECURITY INTEREST IN, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER ALL OR ANY PART OF ITS RIGHTS, TITLE AND INTEREST IN THIS LEASE AND THE EQUIPMENT WITHOUT NOTICE TO OR CONSENT OF LESSEE.
An assignment is the transfer of one party's entire interest in and obligations under a lease to another party. The new tenant takes on the lease responsibilities, including rent and property maintenance, and the original tenant is released from most (if not all) of its duties.
Assignee tenants are in privity of estate with the landlord, and thus the landlord may collect rent from them. In other words, they are liable to the landlord for the rent and any other covenants in the lease that run with the lease.
In assignment, the entire leasehold interest is transferred from the current Tenant to a new one. In a sublease, only a partial interest is transferred; in the case of a farm lease, this typically would be a portion of the property or a structure such as a hoop house.
