Should such inspection lead to the discovery of a greater than five percent (5%) discrepancy in reporting to the Lenders' detriment, Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of Agent's agents who conducted the inspection plus an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the amount of such discrepancy. Company will promptly pay to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders all amounts appropriately determined by any inspection to be due to Developer.
