A surrender is the yielding or delivering up of lands or tenements and the estate a man has therein, unto another that has a higher and a greater estate in the same lands or tenements. (T)o give a surrender legal effect, the surrenderee must have the immediate estate in remainder or reversion expectant on the estate of the surrenderor. For example, if A lets to B for five years and B lets to C for four years, C cannot surrender to A, as A has not the immediate estate in remainder or reversion expectant on the estate of the surrenderor. (Anger & Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 290)
