Options to purchase a legal estate(including options to renew a lease) must be registered in the Land Registry under the "Land Charges Act, "1972, as estate contracts, or they will be void against a purchaser for value(with or without notice), for money or money's worth; but the grantee of the option will be entitled to damages against the grantor if he has put it out of his power to perform the contract.

An option may be described as a right usually acquired by contract to accept or reject a continuing offer within a prescribed period. When supported by consideration it constitutes an irrevocable offer binding on the grantor of the option. The person in whose favour it is made, the grantee, assumes no obligations. An option to purchase land, for instance, is not a contract for the sale and purchase of land. Under the latter one party is bound to sell and the other is bound to buy, whereas an option simply gives the grantee a right to purchase without any obligation to do so.(Barnsley, p. 1)  1, fiche 2, Anglais, - option

An enforceable option to purchase land confers on the grantee, Y, a right to call for a conveyance of the land from the grantor, X, provided that Y complies with all the terms of the option. Where X and Y are strangers between whom no other legal relationship exists, the option is commonly termed an option in gross.... An option may also be conferred on a tenant to purchase the freehold reversion. An option contained in a lease differs from an option in gross only in the respects that the grantor and the grantee stand in the relationship of landlord and tenant, and that the contract creating it is made part of the terms on which the lease is granted....(Barnsley, "Land Options", p. 2)  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - option%20in%20gross
