No unconditional oral surrender was proved; leaving keys at the management office to enable re-letting and allowing agents to show the premises was consistent with a conditional arrangement and not unequivocally inconsistent with continuance of the lease; Time Century's vacation amounted to repudiatory breach which Silver Source validly accepted on 26 November 1990; plaintiff awarded arrears and damages subject to set off of the HK$50,000 security deposit and duty to mitigate.
