Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

Terminating a Lease

If an existing lease to rent an apartment has a duration of one year, terminating on Dec. 31st, but the landlord has added a paragraph stating ''after Mar.31st, if apartment is sold he can require the tenant to leave with 15 day notice'' does the lease then become a month to month rental in which the tenant can give a 30 day notice to vacate?
