Special termination right on a rent increase excluded – valid?
Likely invalid — such a clause does not bind you.
The tenant's special termination rights (e.g. § 561 BGB after a rent increase, § 555e BGB on modernisation) cannot be contractually restricted.
What you can do next
This restriction is invalid. Your statutory right to extraordinary termination remains in effect.
