    3) Jack has anticipatorily repudiated the contract and Hal and Sophia can immediately consider the contract to be breached.

    Explanation:

    Anticipatory repudiation of a contract refers to one party breaching the contract by declaring that they do not intend to perform consideration. Anticipatory repudiation is a type of contract breach, and as soon as the other party is notified about it, it can decide to claim any type of compensatory damages that may result from the breaching.
