A contract is basically legally executor agreement between two parties for services or goods. A contract is either written or oral, but the general recommendation is to write a contract having a signature of both parties. A contract is formed when there comes an offer of doing something, consideration, and acceptance of that offer. Consideration is based on exchange amongst parties.
If a person binds a contract with the dealer to build an office, then the dealer builds office in exchange for payment on the agreed price. Once the parties are agreed on an agreement related to contract terms then they both are legally constrained to execute their commitments under the contract. And if they fail to execute commitments, they have violated the contract and can be held accountable in law’s court.
Ending a contract means that the agreement of both parties has been ended legally and they both have executed their commitments following the terms of the contract.
Most of the companies sign contracts with employees on certain terms and conditions and notification of ending the contract is written from the head of a company to the concerned person with whom the contract was signed.
There are a number of reasons for a contract to be ended. Writing a letter to inform the ending of a contract is a suitable way. It leaves a good impression and one can write in detail the reason for the contract to be ended. It remains in the official record and can be used as a written proof that this person has worked under XYZ Company. Following is a format for the notification of ending the contract.
