The County shall be allowed to take all material into and upon <br /> the leased property that may be required therefor without the same constituting an <br /> eviction of the Tenant in whole or in part. The rent reserved shall not abate while <br /> decorations, repairs, alterations, improvements, or additions are being made, whether <br /> by reason of loss or interruption of the business of the Tenant or otherwise. During the <br /> last month prior to the expiration of the term of this lease, the County may place upon <br /> the leased property the usual notices "To Let" or "For Sale", which notices the Tenant <br /> shall permit to remain thereon without molestation. If during the last month of the term <br /> the Tenant shall have removed all or substantially all of the 'Tenant's property <br /> therefrom, the County may, with the Tenant's permission, immediately enter and later, <br /> renovate and redecorate the leased property without elimination of abatement of rent <br /> and without liability to the Tenant for any compensation, and such acts shall have no <br /> effect upon this lease. If the Tenant or its employees shall not be personally present to <br /> permit entry at any time when an entry therein shall be immediately necessary, as <br /> herein provided, the County may enter the premises by such means as may be <br /> appropriate, including forcible entry, without rendering the County or such agents liable <br /> therefor (if during such entry the County or his agents shall accord reasonable care to <br /> the Tenant's property), and without in any manner affecting the obligations and <br /> covenants of this lease. The County's right of reentry shall not be deemed to impose <br /> upon the County any obligation, responsibility or liability for the care, supervision or <br /> repair of the leased property other than as herein provided. In the event that it <br /> becomes necessary for County to replace or repair any major component or any <br /> structural or other system in the leased premises, the County shall have full and <br /> unrestricted access to the building and the leased property. The County reserves the <br /> right temporarily to interrupt, curtail, stop or suspend air-conditioning and heating <br /> service, and all other utility or other services, because of accident or emergency or for <br /> repairs, alterations, additions, or improvements, or because of the County's inability to <br /> obtain, or difficulty or delay in obtaining, labor or materials necessary therefor or <br /> compliance with governmental restrictions in connection therewith, or because of any <br /> other cause beyond the County's reasonable control, provided that, except in cases of <br /> emergency, the County will use its best efforts to limit such stoppage to after-business <br /> hours, will notify the Tenant in advance, if possible, of any such stoppage, and, if <br /> ascertainable, its estimated duration, and will proceed diligently with the work <br /> necessary to resume such service as promptly as possible and in a manner and at <br /> times as will not materially interfere with or impair the Tenant's use of the leased <br /> property. No diminution or abatement of fixed rent or other compensation shall be <br /> claimed by the Tenant, nor shall this lease or any of the obligations of the Tenant <br /> hereunder be affected or reduced by reason of such interruption, stoppage, or <br /> curtailment, nor shall the same give rise to a claim in the Tenant's favor that such <br /> failure constitutes total or partial eviction from the leased property, provided that if the <br /> leased property shall be unreasonably untenantable for a continuous period of more <br /> than four business days by reason of any such stoppage, the fixed rent payable by the <br /> Tenant shall abate until the Tenant shall be again able to use the leaned property. <br /> 24.
