The following scenario will be used for the next three questions:

Andre offered to sell to Brianna a personal watercraft that was not running very well for $500. Brianna was interested but not willing to pay $500. She said, "I'll give you $400." Andre said that he would think about it. Later, the same day, Andre asked Charlotte if she would be interested in purchasing the personal watercraft for $500. Charlotte said, "Would you consider $450?" Andre said he would think on it. A few minutes later, Dylan who had heard that Andre wanted to sell the watercraft accepted Andre's offer to sell for $500, and they agreed that he would pick up the watercraft the next day. A few minutes later, Brianna called saying that she accepted Andre's offer to sell the watercraft for $500. A few minutes after that, Charlotte called and told that she accepted his offer to sell the watercraft for $500. Andre told Brianna and Charlotte that he had already sold it, and they are angry, threatening to sue. Additionally, through no fault of anyone, there was a fire at Andre's home that night and the personal watercraft burned. Dylan was not happy. A dispute ensues regarding what obligations Andre has, if any.

Which of the following is correct regarding the status of the negotiations between Andre and Brianna prior to the fire?

Andre made an offer which was rejected by Brianna when she made a counteroffer for $400.

Andre had made an offer which was still outstanding even though Brianna had made a counteroffer for $400.

Andre had made an offer, and it was still outstanding because he did not revoke it before ending his initial conversation with Brianna in which she offered $400.

Andre had made an offer but it was revoked because Brianna did not immediately accept it.
