Nothing entitles the tenant to 'break' it. But if the conditions are broke by the landlord first, or if a situation specificed in the lease comes to be that allows, one may be no longer bound by the lease.

For instance, if the landlord fails to provide needed repairs, such that it is untenable to live there. No water, or electricty, and for more than just a few hours, or even a day or two.

If you believe you have reason to regard yourself as no longer bound by the lease, then please consult a local attorney, one who can advise you as to your specific situation.
