Fire Protection All measures shall be taken which are reasonably necessary to protect the Timberland from loss by fire, which measures shall be at least equal to fire-control practices generally followed on timber producing property in the same general area, including the adoption of suitable prevention and control measures, the maintenance of adequate firefighting equipment, the maintenance of fire lanes where needed, the use of fire patrols, proper disposal of slash and full cooperation with Governmental Authorities on matters of fire prevention and control. Each Landholder shall maintain membership in forest protective associations where any of its Timberland fall within a forest protective district under the jurisdiction of any such association, and shall pay as due any forest patrol assessments of any state forester or of such forest protective association.
Lien Protection Lessee shall pay when due all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Lessee at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanic's or materialmen's lien against the Premises or any interest therein. Lessee shall give Lessor not less than ten (10) days' notice prior to the commencement of any work in, on, or about the Premises, and Lessor shall have the right to post notices of non-responsibility in or on the Premises as provided by law. If Lessee shall, in good faith, contest the validity of any such lien, claim or demand, then Lessee shall, at its sole expense, defend and protect itself, Lessor and the Premises against the same and shall pay and satisfy any such adverse judgment that may be rendered thereon before the enforcement thereof against the Lessor or the Premises. If Lessor shall require, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor a surety bond satisfactory to Lessor in an amount equal to one and one-half times the amount of such contested lien claim or demand, indemnifying Lessor against liability for the same, as required by law for the holding of the Premises free from the effect of such lien or claim. In addition, Lessor may require Lessee to pay Lessor's attorneys' fees and costs in participating in such action if Lessor shall decide it is to its best interest to do so.
