I own commercial property and had two big-business tenants who wanted to exit their leases early. After talking to our attorney and other owners who had been through the same situation we found out that a typical deal was to get 2 years rent upfront when they left, and be able to re-rent the space. In both instances we took the check for 2 years rent and within 3 months had the spaces re-rented.
A lease is a contract, I guarantee you that CVS didn’t walk away scot-free. They might have just continued paying the rent every month for years, I have seen that happen also.
Just an FYI....
