The Grantee shall insert a similar provision in all subcontracts for services by this agreement. d. Retain all records for a period of 5 years from the date of submission of the final project report. If any litigation, claim, negotiation, audit, or other action involving the records has been started before the expiration of the 5 year period, the records shall be retained until completion of the action and resolution of all issues which arise from it, or until the end of the regular 5 year period, whichever is later. e. In the event that the GRANTEE expends a total amount of State awards (i.e., State financial assistance provided to the GRANTEE to cant' out a State project) equal to or in excess of $300,000 in any fiscal year of such GRANTEE the GRANTEE must have a State single or project -specific audit for such fiscal year in accordance with Section 215.97, Florida Statutes; applicable rules of the Executive Office of the Governor and the Comptroller, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. In determining the State awards expended in its fiscal year, the GRANTEE shall consider all sources of State awards, including State funds received from the Florida Department of State, except that State awards received by a nonstate entity for Federal program matching requirements shall be excluded from consideration. In connection with the audit requirements addressed in Section e, paragraph 1, the GRANTEE shall ensure that the audit complies with the requirements of Section 215.97(7), Florida Statutes. This includes submission of a reporting package as defined by Section 215.97(2)(d), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. If the Grantee expends less than $300,000 in State awards in its fiscal year, an audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 215.97, Florida Statutes, is not required. In the event that the GRANTEE expends less than $300,000 in State awards in its fiscal year and elects to have an audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of Section 215.97, Florida Statutes, the cost of the audit must be paid from non -State funds (i.e., the cost of such an audit must be paid from GRANTEE funds obtained from other than State entities). f.
