Grantee shall provide at least 45 days written notice to subscribers prior to disconnecting any channel or programming service or to realigning any channel and shall provide written notice of the same to the Authority no later than Grantee's notice to subscribers. This provision shall not preclude the right of the Village or the Authority on behalf of the Village to contest or prohibit any such action by Grantee if, and to the extent, such right exists. The foregoing notice requirement shall not apply in cases in which a programming service is discontinued because a nonaffiliated provider thereof discontinues furnishing the same to Grantee on less than 45 days notice to Grantee. In any such case Grantee shall nevertheless furnish notice to its subscribers and the Authority promptly upon Grantee receiving notice of the discontinuance of the programming service from such unaffiliated provider.
