agreement under which the real property, dwelling unit, recreational vehicle or
mobile home is held, other than those mentioned in NRS 40.250 to 40.254 , inclusive, and after notice in
writing, requiring in the alternative the performance of the condition or
covenant or the surrender of the real property, dwelling unit, recreational

service, the tenant, or any subtenant in actual occupation of the premises or
property, or any mortgagee of the term, or other person, interested in its
