Dear [recipient's name]:

I am writing to notify you that I intend to terminate my lease at 3301 Seaside Boulevard in Ocean City when the current lease ends on September 30, 2010. I am sending this letter at least 30 days before the lease ends, per the requirements written in the lease.

Please contact me so we can discuss move-out policies and details. I am also aware of the move-out information that is included in the lease.

I have enjoyed living in the apartment for the past year. Thank you for your management of the property during this time.

Sincerely,

[Signature]
