Early Termination Fee

hello. i lease my apartment and the lease is going to expire in december. but i need to leave the apartment in august cause need to leave the country. well,there is a early termination clause in contract which explains need to pay early termination fee which equal to two months rent. when i signed the contract i paid first and last month rent plus deposit. i wonder do i still have to pay early termination fee ? will i get my last month rent and deposit back? can we think last month and deposit in exchange for ealy termination fee

If you pay for the remaining two months, you should get your advance and deposit..

If you cancel within the first 30 days, you must return the phone. You either return them or pay for them. If you don't, AT&T is going to sue you. Oh and forget the "I mailed them back" crap. If you actually had and they were lost or stolen in the mail, you would have an insurance claim if you had insured them and if you hadn't, the loss would be yours and you would owe the money to AT&T.

in the contract says

i agree as provoided in the rental agreement to pay 2600 $ (an amount does not exceed to months rent) as liquiated damages or an early termination fee if i elect to terminate the rental agreement and the landlord waives to right to seek additional rent beyond the month and which the landlord retakes possesion

i'm moving out of country.. means they don't have any chances to pay me my advance last month and deposit later on.

so can i offer them to keep my advance last month rent and deposit as early termination fee ?
