Property Ownership

A Mississippi commercial building owner grants a tenant a 'right to renew' their lease at a stated rental rate. This right is an example of:

AA fee simple ownership right
BA contractual option that runs with the lease, giving the tenant the right to extend their tenancy on specified terms✓ Correct
CAn easement appurtenant
DA sublease clause

Explanation

A lease renewal option is a contractual right granted to the tenant — not an ownership interest in the property. It gives the tenant the option (but not the obligation) to extend their lease on specified terms. If the tenant exercises the option, the landlord is bound to renew on those terms.
