(1) The lease provides a tenant option to determine on 01/02/2021 (on not less than 6 months' and not more than 12 months' notice).

It is assumed the Company will be struck off due to the death of the sole shareholder and the fact that trade has ceased. The vendor has not acknowledged closure of the business and although the lease is still currently in place no rent is being paid. Further details can be found in the legal pack. The lease provides an option to determine on 01/08/2023.
