Where a nursing home licensed under this Chapter is operated in a building that was leased pursuant to a written lease agreement entered into on or before January 1, 1970, and where the lease agreement does not expressly determine or state the identity of the party that owns the nursing home business, operating rights, certificate of need, or legal rights associated with ownership and operation of the nursing home beds located in the leased building and does not provide that the lessor retains any rights to the nursing home business that is operated in the leased building, the party identified in the nursing home license in existence on the effective date of this section shall be deemed the sole owner of the nursing home business, operating rights, certificate of need, and legal rights associated with ownership and operation of the nursing home beds and may relocate the nursing home business, beds, or operating rights without the consent of the owner of the real estate in or on which the nursing home is operated. Where a court having jurisdiction over a nursing home has determined prior to July 1, 1993, that the lessee or person in possession of and operating the nursing home owns the operating rights of the nursing home and there is no written lease agreement between the owner of the real estate and the person in possession and operating the nursing home, the director of health shall not grant a certificate of need under sections 3702.51 to 3702.62 of the Revised Code to relocate any of the nursing facility beds or the license from the owner's real estate in or on which the beds are located unless the lessee or person in possession of the facility obtains the voluntary written consent of the owner or sublessor of the real estate to such relocation and meets all other requirements for the relocation of beds as specified in this chapter and the rules adopted under it.
