  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.
