Each of these assessments, together with interest, costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall also be the personal obligation of the person who was the Owner of such Lot at the time the assessment became due. The personal obligation for de- linquent assessments shall not pass to such person's successors in interest unless expressly assumed by them. 2. Purpose of Assessments. The assessments levied by the Association shall be used exclusively to promote the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the Property and for the improvement, operation and maintenance of the Common Areas, to pay the Association's share of maintaining and operating the entrance guardgate and gatehouse pursuant to "Guardgate and -14- DE00193/09/15/88/T :.; Gatehouse :Maintenance and Operation Agreement" as described in -1 Section 2 of Article II, and for the oer`ormance of zhe duties of the Association as set forth in this Declaration, the Articles �- and Bylaws. 3 .

Written notice of the amount of the Regular Assessment for the year shall be sent _o each Owner, who shall thereafter pay the Regular Assessment :o the association in monthly installments unless some ocher pe:icd for collection is established by the Board. 4. Special Assessments for Capital Improvements. In addition to the Regular Assessments authorized above, the Associ- ation may levy, in any fiscal year, a Special Assessment applic- able to that year only, for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part, the cost of any construction, repair or replacement of the common streets, the guardgate or gatehouse, or a capital improvement upon any other Common Area within or without the Property for. which the Association is responsible, including fixtures and personal property related thereto, or any other action or undertaking on behalf of the Association. 5. Increases in Regular and Soecial Assessments. In the event that the Board at, any time determines that the estimate of total charges for the current year is or will become inadequate to meet all common expenses of the Association for any reason, it shall immediately determine the approximate amount, of such inadequacy and issue a supplemental estimate of the common expenses and determine a revised amount of Regular Assessments for each Owner and the date or dates when due. Exceot as provided below, Regular Assessments may not be increased more than ten percent (10%) over the Regular Assessments for the preceding fiscal year and Soecial Assessments may not exceed in the aggregate five percent (5%) of the budgeted gross expenses of the Association for the current fiscal year without approval by the vote or written assent of Owners casting a majority of the votes at a meeting or election of the Association conducted in accordance with Sections 7510 through 7527 and 7613 of the Corporations Code. Any meeting called to approve an increase in Regular or Special Assessments in excess of the percentage limitations described above shall be duly noticed in accordance with Section 4 of Article IV of the Bylaws. Further, the presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of fifty percent (50%) or more of the Owners shall constitute the required quorum for any action to be taken. The percentage limitations for increases in Regular and Special Assessments described above will not limit assessment increases necessary for emergency situations. An "emorgenc:y situation" includes any one of the following: : -15- DE00193/09/15/88/T, •-i r! (a) An extraordinary expense required by an order; (b) An extraordinary expense necessary to rep_a;: or maintain the Property or any part of it for which t::e Association is responsible where a threat to personal savety :s discovered; or (c) An extraordinary expense necessary to repa:= or maintain the Property or any part of it for whic.h : e Association is responsible which could not have been reasonably foreseen by the Board in preparing and distributing its pro for=a budget of the Association as described in Article VII, Section 5 of the Bylaws. Prior to the imposition or collection of an assessment under this subparagraph (c) , .the Board shall adopt a resolution containing written findings regarding the necessity of the extraordinary expense and why such expense was not or could not have been reasonably foreseen in the budgeting process, which resolution will be distributed to the Owners with the notice of such assessment. 6 . Reimbursement Assessments. The Association may levy a Reimbursement Assessment against any Owner who fails to comply with the provisions of this Declaration, the determinations of the Architectural Committee, the Articles or Bylaws, or any rule or regulation adopted by the Association, if such failure results in the expenditure of monies by the Association in carrying out its functions hereunder or for purposes of collecting any fines which may be levied by the Association. Such assessment shall also be for the purpose of. reimbursing the Association for any costs incurred by the Association on behalf of an individual Owner . A Reimbursement Assessment shall be due and payable to the Association when levied but may not become a lien as provided by Section 11(b) of this Article V which could otherwise be enforced by a sale of the Owner's Lot. 7. Uniform Rate of Assessment. Regular and Special Assess- ments shall be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots and shall be levied against each Owner according to the ratio of the number of Lots owned by the Owner to the total number of Lots subject to assessment. 8 .

A reasonable charge, of not less . than Fifteen Dollars ($15.00) , and not more than the reasonable cost of preparing the certificate (as deter- , mined by the Board) may be collected for the issuance of such a certificate. Such certificates shall be conclusive evidence of -16- DE00193/09/15/88/T H payment of any assessment therein stated to have been paid as to all third parties relying thereon, but shall not relieve any Own- er of liability for assessments not in fact paid. 9. No Offsets. All assessments shall be payable in the amount specified and no offset against such amount sisal_ be permitted for any reason, including, ait.hout limitation, a c'_a:m that the Association is not properly exercising its duties arc powers as provided in this Declaration. 10 . Reserves. Regular Assessments shall include reasonable amounts as determined by the Board collected as reserves for :^e future periodic maintenance, repair or replacement of all or any portion of the common streets, guardgate, guardhouse or other Common Area that must be repaired or replaced on a periodic basis, or for any other purpose as determined by the Board. All amounts collected as reserves, whether pursuant to this Section. or otherwise, shall be deposited by the Board in a separate bank account to be held in trust for the purposes for which they are collected and are to be segregated from and not commingled with any other funds of the Association. Such reserves shall be deemed a contribution to the capital account of the Association by the Owners. 11. Effect of Nonpavment of Assessments; Remedies of the Association. Each Owner upon becoming an Owner o - any Lot, covenants and agrees to pay to the Association all of the assess- ments provided for in this Declaration and further agrees to the enforcement of all such assessments in the manner herein speci- fied.

A Regular or Special Assessment and any late charges, reasonable costs of collection, and interest, shall be a debt of the Owner at the time the assessment or other sums are levied. In addition to any other remedies provided herein or available at law or in equity, the Board or its authorized representative may enforce the obligations of the Owners to pay the assessmcrit.s provided for in this Declaration by either or both of grid following procedures: -17- DEO0193/09/15/88/T �A A. Enforcement by Suit. The association may commerce and pursue an action against any Owner personally obligated to pay assessments for such delinquent assessments. Any judca:ent rendered in any such action shall include the amount of the de- linquency, together with interest thereon, costs of coilec_:or., court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees in such amount as zhe court may adjudge against the delinquent Owner. Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1367(e) , suit to recover a :Honey judgment for unpaid assessments may be maintained w:zhout foreclosing or waiving the Lien hereinafter described. he remedy provided in this paragraph shall be the exclusive manner of enforcing payment of delinquent Reimbursement Assessments. B. Enforcement by Lien. The Association may record, or cause to be recorded, a Notice of Delinquent Assessment with respect to the Lot as to which assessments are delinquent. The Notice of Delinquent Assessment shall set forth a description of the Owner 's interest in the Property, the name of the record owners of that interest, the amount of assessments (other than Reimbursement Assessments) which are delinquent as of the date of recording, together with all costs, attorneys ' fees, late charges and interest accrued thereon. The Notice shall also include the name and address of the trustee authorized by the Association to enforce the lien by sale through nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings as described below and shall be signed by the person designated by the Board for that purposes (or if no one is designated, by the President of the Association) . Immediately upon recordation of a Notice of Delinquent Assessment, the amounts set forth in said Notice, together with all sums accruing thereon or becoming due and payable in accordance with this Declaration after the date of recordation of the Notice, shall constitute a lien in favor of the Association upon the Lot described in the Notice, which lien shall be immediately due and payable. This lien shall have priority over all liens or claims created subsequent to the recordation of the Notice, except For liens for real property taxes and assessments on any Lot in favor of any governmental assessing unit. Any such lien may be enforced in any manner permitted by law, including sale by the court, sale by the trustee designated in the Notice, or sale by a trustee substituted pursuant to Section 2934(a) of the California Civil Code. Any sale by the trustee shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2924, 2924(b) and 2924(c) applicable to the exercise of powers of sale in mortgages and deeds of trust or in any other manner permitted by law. The Association shall have the power to bid in at any foreclosure sale and to purchase, acquire, hold, lease, mortgage and convey any Lot. The Association may accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Upon the timely curing of any default for which a Notice of Delinquent Assessment was filed, by payment of all suitis -18- • DE00193/09/15/88/T secured by the lien, the Board shall cause an appropriate release •y of such lien to be recorded in the Recorder 's Office of Riverside County. No Owner may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments described in this Declaration by non-use of the Common Areas or any other cart of the Property, or abandonment of his Lot. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Declaration to the contrary, no action may be brought to foreclose the lien created by recordation of a Notice of Delinquent Assessment, whether judicially, by power of sale, or otherwise, until t^e expiration of thirty ( 30) days after a copy of said Notice, showing the date of recordation thereof, has been mailed to the Owner of the Lot which is described in such Notice. 12 . Subordination to Certain Trust Deeds. The lien for the assessments described herein shall only be subordinate to the lien of a First Mortgage given and made, in good faith and for value, that is of record as an encumbrance against such Lot prior to the recordation of a Notice of Assessment. The sale or transfer of any Lot shall not affect the assessment lien describ- ed herein, nor shall such sale or transfer diminish or defeat the personal obligation of any Owner for delinquent assessments. How- ever, the sale or transfer of any Lot pursuant to a judicial foreclosure or foreclosure by power of sale of a first encum- brance shall extinguish any assessment lien recorded prior to the time of such sale or transfer. Following a foreclosure, the in- terest of any purchaser at such foreclosure sale shall be subject to all assessments becoming due after the date of such sale or transfer, and in the event of nonpayment .of such assessments, shall be subject to all of the remedies described in this Decla- ration. For the purpose of this Section 15, a sale or transfer of a Lot shall occur on the date* of recordation of a deed or land sale contract evidencing the conveyance of record ownership of the Lot.

Any such form of proxy also shall provide, subject to reasonable specified conditions, that where the person solicited specifies a choice with respect to any such matter the vote shall be cast in accor- dance therewith.

At each annual meeting thereafter, the Members shall elect three ( 3) or two ( 2) Directors respectively, for a term of two (2) years, to succeed those Directors whose terms have expired. Section 4. Nomination. Nominations for the office of Direc- tor shall be made by a Nominating Committee consisting of a chairman, who shall be a member of the Board, and two (2) or more Members of the Association.
