With respect to the issue presented, the record reflects that the respondents sent notice to Harlow Fay, John Fay, Steven Fay, and Ellis Burns, the trustee of the Stockwell Land Trusts, of their intent to terminate the lease of Harlow Fay and take possession of the farm as of December 31, 1996. The record further reflects that no notice was given to any party designated as Robin Farms. However, it may be arguable that the notice to John Fay, who was the corporate president of both Harlow Fay and Robin Farms, was sufficient to terminate the tenancy of not only Harlow Fay, but also Robin Farms. This is so in that the knowledge of an agent or officer of a corporation regarding matters within his or her scope of employment and authority and to which his or her employment extends is imputed to the corporate principal.
