mutually acceptable terms before sixty (60) days of the current expiration date
with a resulting negotiated Agreement of Terms. If no acceptable Agreement
of Terms is reached between the parties, then the expiration date is final.
4. County's and Tenant's Representations.
(A) County shall provide the space identified in Exhibit A constructed for
Tenant's purposes. The extent of the construction shall be outlined in
"Exhibit B." "Exhibit B" shall be an "as built" drawing/sketch showing the
