Such fee shall be due and payable thirty (30) days following Tenant's delivery of such termination notice to Landlord. 31.b. In the event that there is either a Part 13 Complaint or a Part 16 challenge (by way of a request for reconsideration or appeal of the current Part 16 Complaint (FAA Docket 16-15-03) or a new Part 16 Complaint) due to Landlord having granted Tenant a long term lease of the 760 and/or 770 Parcels, Tenant will fund the Landlord's defense, including but not limited to, reimbursement of the Landlord's actual, reasonable, documented, out of pocket costs resulting from the use'of city staff and resources to defend, as well as attorney's fees and , costs for independent counsel, selected by the Landlord's attorney.

However, Landlord may not unilaterally terminate the lease due to a finding that the lease of Parcels 760 and 770 cause the Landlord to , be out of compliance with the Grant Assurances unless Landlord reasonably determines that the remedies and protections provided for in Sections 31.a and 31.b are insufficient to protect the Landlord or the operation of the Airport from ongoing damage, losses, and/or expenses that are incurred or likely to be incurred as a result of such finding. Moreover, the Parties agree that the Landlord is not required to maintain or improve the Airport to support Tenant's business if adequate funding for such maintenance or improvements is not available without subsidy from the Landlord's general fund. � LAG-10-001 AMENDMENT N0. 9 Page 6 of 9 D.
