The break clause permitted termination where the tenant's relocation out of Hong Kong occurred regardless of whether the relocation was voluntary or employer-initiated; the employer's letter of 29 January 1996 provided sufficient evidence of relocation when produced with the three months' written notice; the trial judge was entitled to find the husband had authority to give the joint notice; and the tenancy agreement allowed apportionment of the final rent on premature determination, therefore the District Court decision for the tenants was correct.
