It shall be the right of all subscribers to receive all available services insofar as their financial and other obligations to the grantee are honored. In the event that the grantee elects to overbuild, rebuild, modify or sell the CATV system, or the City terminates, revokes or fails to renew the franchise within a reasonable time, or the City elects to purchase the CATV system, the grantee shall do everything in its power to ensure that the subscribers receive continuous, uninterrupted service regardless of the circumstances, provided, however, that such obligation shall not continue for a period in excess of eighteen months and that the right and obligations herein provided for shall continue for a like period. In the event of purchase by the City or a change of grantee, the current grantee shall cooperate with the City in maintaining continuity of service to all subscribers. In the event that an interruption of service is required by the grantee for modification, repairs or the like, the interruption shall be as brief as possible and at times when the viewing audience is at a minimum. Records of such interruptions shall be kept.
