receipt of written notification sent by certified mail to accept same on
identical terms and conditions. Failure by Tenant to respond will be deemed a
denial by Tenant.

(ii) Subsequently if NHI has a third party offer, which it is
willing to accept and which changes in any economic manner the
terms of the original Written Offer, then NHI must re-offer
the Written Offer on the changed terms and conditions to NHC,
which shall have five business days from the receipt by Tenant
of the certified mailing to accept or reject in writing the
