Common use of Interruption of Standard Services Clause in Contracts

Interruption of Standard Services. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable for failure to supply any heating, air conditioning, janitorial services, electric current, or any other utility during any period when Landlord uses reasonable diligence to restore or to supply such services or utility, provided such interruption is not due to Landlord’s negligence, in which case Rent shall be abated during such period of interruption of service. If despite such exercise of reasonable diligence, interruption to HVAC and electricity continues for a period in excess of 96 consecutive hours and Tenant does not substantially occupy Premises due to interruption, then Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of Rent until the service is restored. Landlord reserves the right to temporarily discontinue such services at times as may be necessary by reason of accident, repairs, alterations, or improvements, or whatever by reason of strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of God, or any other happening or occurrence beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, provided such discontinuance does not substantially interfere with Tenant’s business operations.
