The costs of such an audit shall be paid by City unless an audit discloses that Licensee understated gross receipts by two percent (2 %) or more, or discovered recordkeeping inadequacies which, in the opinion of the auditors, could result in the understatement of gross receipts by two percent (2 %) or more, in which case Licensee shall pay all of City's costs of audit. The acceptance by City of any monies paid to City by Licensee as License Fees, as shown by any statement furnished by Licensee, shall not be an admission of either (i) the accuracy of such . statement, or (ii) the sufficiency of the amount of the License Fees.
