HRS §490:2A-403
How to take back a broken lease promise
A party who said they won't perform a lease can take that back before their next duty is due, unless the other side has already canceled or relied on the promise. The retraction must clearly show intent to perform. It restores the original rights, with the other side excused for any delay.

The statute, as written — Retraction of anticipatory repudiation
(a) Until the repudiating party's next performance is due, the repudiating party can retract the repudiation unless, since the repudiation, the aggrieved party has canceled the lease contract or materially changed the aggrieved party's position or otherwise indicated that the aggrieved party considers the repudiation final. (b) Retraction may be by any method that clearly indicates to the aggrieved party that the repudiating party intends to perform under the lease contract and includes any assurance demanded under section 490:2A-401. (c) Retraction reinstates a repudiating party's rights under a lease contract with due excuse and allowance to the aggrieved party for any delay occasioned by the repudiation.
