Description
In this case we affirm summary judgment dismissing a lessees claim that he did not receive notice of sale sufficient to exercise a contractual right of first refusal to purchase the land he was leasing. We hold that when, as in this case, the lease provides the lessee with right of first refusal but is otherwise silent regarding the right, the lessor need only provide reasonable notice of the essential terms of an offer of sale to trigger the lessees obligation to timely exercise his right of first refusal. We acknowledge that upon receiving notice of sale, the lessee may need to clarify or investigate uncertainties or ambiguities in essential sale terms before exercising the lessees first refusal right, but we also hold that such inquiry, and lessors response thereto, must be reasonable, timely and in good faith.
