        elect, within 180 days of receiving notice pursuant to

        immediate family for the remainder of the term of the extension 
        under this subsection.
            ``(3) Conditions.--Any extension under this subsection 
        shall be subject to subsections (c) and (d) in the same manner 
        and to the same extent as is a retained right under subsection 
        (b), except that termination of the extension by the Secretary 
        shall take effect only after 180 days after the Secretary has 
        notified the person holding the extension of the Secretary's 
        intention to terminate the extension. Any extension under this 
        subsection shall be conditioned upon the annual payment by 
        person to whom such extension is issued of an amount determined 
        in accordance with paragraph (4). Any such extension shall also 
        be conditioned upon the following:
                    ``(A) An agreement by the person to whom such 
                extension is issued to assume all responsibilities for 
                maintenance, repair, and replacement of all 
                improvements located on the property concerned and to 
                indemnify and hold harmless the United States for any 
                liability which may arise in connection with such 
                property.
                    ``(B) An agreement by the person to whom such 
                extension is issued to make pro rata payments to local 
                governments providing services to persons residing 
                within the boundaries of the lakeshore in such 
                reasonable amounts and at such times as may be 
                determined by such local governments in order to 
                reimburse such local governments for the costs of 
                providing such services.
            ``(4) Amount.--The amount of each payment to be made by a 
        person under paragraph (3) shall be such person's annual pro 
        rata share of an amount determined according to a formula where 
        the numerator is the value of the property used or occupied by 
        such person and the denominator is 100. The value of the 
        property for purposes of this paragraph shall be the value of 
        the property at the time of its acquisition by the United 
        States, indexed for inflation according to the Consumer Price 
        Index, as determined by the Secretary. Notwithstanding sections 
        1341 and 3302 of title 31 of the United States Code, such 
        annual payments shall be retained by the Secretary and shall be 
        available for use by the Secretary without further 
        appropriation for purposes of maintenance and administration of 
        the national lakeshore.
    ``(f) Authority to Lease to Family.--Following an extension under 
subsection (e) of a right of use and occupancy for any property, the 
Secretary may lease the property to any member or members of the 
immediate family of such owner for a definite or indefinite term, at 
the discretion of the Secretary. The Secretary may, after 180 days 
notice to the lessee, terminate any such lease when the Secretary 
determines that the structures on the property will be removed and the 
property will be restored to its natural condition in order to improve 
the natural landscape and provide better opportunities for public 
access and enjoyment. Any such lease shall be subject to the same 
conditions as referred to in paragraph (3) of subsection (e) and lease 
payments shall be retained by the Secretary in the same manner as 
provided in paragraph (4) of subsection (e).''.
    (b) Technical and Conforming Amendments.--Section 10(c) of such Act 
is amended by striking ``many'' and inserting ``may''. Section 11(a)(2)
