In an action, inter alia, to recover damages for breach of contract, the plaintiff appeals from an order and judgment (one paper) of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Alpert, J.), entered April 11, 1995, which, inter alia, granted the respective motions of the defendants for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

If a firm offer is made for a specified period which is in excess of three months, the offer is subject to revocation at the expiration of the three month period (see, UCC 2-205, Comment 3; 2 Anderson, Uniform Commercial Code, § 2-205:11, at 242 [3d ed]; see also, Mid-South Packers v Shoney’s, Inc., 761 F2d 1117, 1121). An offer may be terminated by indirect revocation (see, Calamari & Perillo, Contracts § 2-20, at 97 [3d ed]). An offeror need not say "revoke” to effectuate a revocation (1 Farnsworth, Contracts § 3.17, at 249 [1990]). Where an offeror takes "definite action inconsistent with an intention to enter into the proposed contract”, such action is considered a valid revocation (Restatement [Second] of Contracts § 43; see also, 1 Farnsworth, Contracts § 3.17, at 250 [1990]).

On November 4, 1993, the appellant attempted to accept the original offer made on April 14, 1993.
We find that the offer made by Saint Switch on August 18, 1993, revoked its earlier offer made on April 14, 1993. The of
