Tender \Ten"der\, n.
1. (Law) An offer, either of money to pay a debt, or of
service to be performed, in order to save a penalty or
forfeiture, which would be incurred by nonpayment or
nonperformance; as, the tender of rent due, or of the
amount of a note, with interest.

offered as the law prescribes. So also the tender must
be at the time and place where the rent or debt ought
to be paid, and it must be to the full amount due.

a loan, of service, or of friendship; a tender of a bid
for a contract.
