§ 5-905. Certain provisions of leases to be inoperative unless express

notice thereof is given to tenant. No provision of a lease of any real

property or premises which states that the term thereof shall be deemed

renewed for a specified additional period of time unless the tenant

gives notice to the lessor of his intention to quit the premises at the

expiration of such term shall be operative unless the lessor, at least

fifteen days and not more than thirty days previous to the time

specified for the furnishing of such notice to him, shall give to the

tenant written notice, served personally or by registered or certified

mail, calling the attention of the tenant to the existence of such

provision in the lease.
