For the purposes of this grant agreement, the term "Federal funds" means funds however used or disbursed by the sponsor that were originally paid pursuant to this or any other Federal grant agreement.

It shall return the recovered Federal share, including funds recovered by settlement, order or judgement, to the Secretary. It shall furnish to the Secretary, upon request, all documents and records pertaining to the determination of the amount of the Federal share or to any settlement, litigation, negotiation, or other efforts taken to recover such funds.

It is mutually understood and agreed that if, during the life of the project, the FAA determines that the grant amount exceeds the expected needs of the sponsor by $5,000 or five (5%) percent, whichever is greater, the grant amount can be unilaterally reduced by letter from the FAA advising of the budget change. Conversely, if there is an overrun in the eligible project costs, FAA may increase the grant to cover the amount of overrun not to exceed the statutory fifteen (15%) percent limitation and will advise the sponsor by letter of the increase. Upon issuance of either of the aforementioned letters, the maximum obligation of the United States is adjusted to the amount specified. 10.
