Lease break clause details: who's right?

    It was suggested I repost here (other thread here: www.boards.ie/2056564513. Apologies, Mods, if not allowed).

    I'm anticipating an issue with my LL.

    Briefly:
    -12 month fixed term lease, rent due 1st of the month.
    -Break clauses: months 3, 6 and 9.
    -Only wording in the entire lease is an inserted note in the Special Conditions: "Break clauses effective at months 3, 6 and 9, enforceable by the Landlord and/or by the Tenant".

    I wrote to LL in month 8 confirming I would be effecting the break clause in month 9 (gave him 6 weeks written notice of same) and notified that I would be leaving on the last day of the month (ie the day before the next rent fell due).

    LL says that's not how the break clause works. He thinks I should have informed him in month 9 that I was leaving in month 10.

    So, who's right? Any insights?
