shall receive any compensation for acting as Manager.
20. ACCOUNTS. The funds and expenditures of the unit owners shall
be credited and charged to accounts under the following classifications as shall
be appropriate, all of which expenditures shall be common expenses:
a. Current expense, which shall include all funds and expenditures
within the year for which the funds are budgeted, including a reasonable
allowance for contingencies and working funds, except expenditures chargeable
to reserves or to additional improvements.
b. Reserve for deferred maintenance, which shall include funds for
maintenance items which occur less frequently than annually.
c. Reserve for replacement, which shall include funds for repair or
replacement required because of damage, wear, or obsolescence.
21. INDEMNIFICATION. Contracts or other commitments made by
the Management Committee or the Manager shall be made as agent for the
Association, and the owners shall have no personal responsibility on any such
contract or commitment (except as owners under Section 31 hereof). Every
member of the Management Committee shall be indemnified by the Association
against all reasonable costs, expenses, and liabilities (including reasonable
legal fees) actually and necessarily incurred by or imposed upon him or her in
connection with any claims, action, suit, proceeding, investigation, or inquiry of
whatever nature in which he or she may be involved as a party or otherwise by
reason of having been a member of the Management Committee whether or not
such individual continues to be a member of the Management Committee at
the time of incurring or imposition of such costs, expenses, or liabilities. The
foregoing right of indemnification shall be in addition to and not in limitation of
all rights to which such persons may be entitled as a matter of law and shall
inure to the benefit of the legal representatives of such person. No member of
the Management Committee shall be defended or reimbursed on any claim for
intentional tortuous conduct, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or
malfeasance toward the owners in the performance of duties.
22. EXCULPATION. No member of the Management Committee shall
be liable for the acts or defaults of any other member, or for any loss sustained
by the owners as a result thereof, unless the same has resulted from his or her
own tortuous or willful misconduct.
23. EXAMINATION OF BOOKS. Each owner and each mortgagee of a
townhome unit shall be permitted to examine the books of account of the
Association at reasonable times.
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 14 OF 26
00036.
24. MECHANIC'S LIEN. Every owner agrees to indemnify and to hold
each of the other owners harmless from any and all claims of mechanic's liens
and all costs and expenses, including attorney's fees, due to such liens filed
against other townhome units and the general and limited common elements
for labor, materials, services, or other products incorporated in the owner's
townhome unit.
25. RESERVATION FOR ACCESS. The Association shall have the
irrevocable right, to be exercised by the Management Committee or the
Manager, to have access to each townhome unit from time to time during
reasonable hours and upon reasonable notice as may be necessary for the
maintenance, replacement or repairs therein necessary to prevent damage to
the common elements or to another townhome unit or hangar. Damage to the
interior or any part of a townhome unit or hangar resulting from the
maintenance, repair, emergency repair, or replacement of any of the general or
limited common elements or as a result of emergency repairs within another
townhome unit, at the instance of the Management Committee or the Manager,
shall be a common expense of all the owners unless such damage is the result
of the misuse or negligence of an owner or such owner's invitees, guests or
representatives, in which case such expense shall be charged to such owner.
In an emergency situation, the Management Committee or the Manager shall
only be required to exercise due care to access a townhome unit or hangar for
the purposes of making emergency maintenance, replacement or repairs
therein necessary to prevent immediate damage to the common elements or to
another townhome unit or hangar.
26. MAINTENANCE RESPONSIBILITIES. As noted in this
Declaration, the maintenance and repair of the exterior of townhome units
shall be the responsibility of the Association, not individual owners. An owner
shall maintain and keep in good repair the interior of his or her own unit,
including the fixtures, window glass, doors, appliances and interior paint. All
fixtures and equipment installed within the unit commencing at a point where
the utilities enter the unit shall be maintained and kept in repair by the owner
thereof. The owner must repair items such as paint and sheet rock that is
damaged by unit occupants unless the damage is caused by casualty (such as
fire) and the repair -cost is covered by insurance of the Association. An owner
shall do no act nor perform any work that will impair the structural soundness
or integrity of the townhome unit or impair any easement or hereditament. An
owner shall also keep any common area appurtenant to his or her townhome
unit in a clean and sanitary condition. An owner shall be responsible for the
cost of repairs for damage caused by the negligence of the owner or any
occupant of the townhome unit to the extent that such costs are not covered by
the Association's insurance (such as the deductible amount). All other costs of
maintenance or repairs to the common elements and exterior of the townhome
units shall be carried out by the Management Committee and shall be a
common expense of all of the owners. As noted in Section 32, owners are
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 15 OF 26
000362
required to maintain their own insurance against certain risks and to require
renter's insurance as appropriate. Declarant shall not be liable for the costs of
maintenance, repair or replacement of any townhome units or other
improvements.
27. COMPLIANCE. Each owner shall comply strictly with the
provisions of this Declaration and the decisions and resolutions of the
Management Committee adopted pursuant thereto as the same may be lawfully
amended from time to time. Failure to comply with any of the same shall be
grounds for an action to recover sums due, for damages or injunctive relief or
both, and for reimbursement of all attorney's fees incurred in connection
therewith, which action shall be maintainable by the Management Committee
or the Manager in the name of the Association on behalf of the owners or, in a
proper case, by an aggrieved owner.
28. RESTRICTIONS RELATING TO INSURANCE COVERAGE.
Without the prior written consent of the Management Committee, nothing shall
be done, kept or permitted to exist in any townhome unit or in the common
area that will result in an increase in the rate of insurance therein. No owner
shall permit anything to be done or kept in his or her townhome unit that will
result in the cancellation of insurance covering the Subdivision or any part
thereof, or which would be in violation of any law.
29. REVOCATION OR AMENDMENT TO DECLARATION. This
Declaration shall not be revoked unless all of the owners and all of the holders
of any recorded first mortgage or first deed of trust covering or affecting any or
all of the townhome units unanimously consent and agree to such revocation
by instrument duly recorded. This Declaration shall not be amended unless
the owners of the units consent and agree to such amendment by instrument
duly recorded and attested by the Management Committee of the Association,
provided that amendment of this Declaration shall also require the consent of
all holders of any recorded first mortgages.
30. ADDITIONS, ALTERATIONS, AND IMPROVEMENTS. The
Declarant retains full authority to further improve the Subdivision and add to
and utilize the common elements.
31. ASSESSMENTS. The making and collection of assessments of any
nature from owners for their share of common expenses (determined pursuant
to this Article and the other applicable provisions of this Declaration) shall be
carried out by the Management Committee in accordance with the following
provisions:
a. WHEN ASSESSMENTS COMMENCE. Assessments for any
townhome unit shall commence on the applicable date specified by the
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 16 OF 26
000363
Declarant, but not later than the date of closing of a sale of a completed
townhome unit by Declarant.
b. SHARES OF COMMON EXPENSES. Each owner of a townhome
unit shall be responsible for an equal proportionate share of all General
Common Expenses. Such "General Common Expenses" include the following
services obtained by the Association: road maintenance, driveway
maintenance, taxiway maintenance, parking space maintenance and snow
plowing and /or removal services, trash collection, utility line maintenance,
cable television services, landscaping, installation and maintenance of
walkways, security systems and security personnel and equipment, common
area facilities installation and maintenance, and a portion of the cost of the
administration of the landscaping, improvement, and operation of the property
(including accounting, legal, equipment, personnel and overhead); and all
expenses of the Association for insurance, maintenance, repair, operation,
landscaping, improvement management and administration. All repairs and
maintenance shall be satisfactorily completed according to any applicable
regulations or statutes. Such General Common Expenses shall be the
responsibility of all owners and shall be shared by all owners on an equal unit
by -unit basis. The Management Committee, in its discretion, may bill specific
owners for specific services (such as cable television services, or repairs for
damage caused by the negligence of an owner or invitees to the extent
uninsured), as a special assessment against the applicable owner and that
owner's unit. It is expressly understood that the provision of certain services,
such as cable television, may or may not be provided by the Association and is
subject to the discretion of the Management Committee, and that certain
services, such as water and sewer services, may be provided by other entities.
c. RIGHT TO COLLECT FROM TENANT. If an owner shall, at any
time, lease his or her townhome unit and shall be in default for a period of one
(1) month or more in the payment of assessments or other charges, the
Management Committee may, at its option, so long as such default shall
continue, demand and receive from any tenant or subtenant of the owner the
rent due or becoming due, and the payment of such rent to the Management
Committee shall discharge such tenant or subtenant from the obligation for
rent to the owner and the owner from his obligation to the Association, to the
extent of the amount so paid. The Management Committee shall be fully
entitled to demand and receive a copy of the applicable lease agreement.
32. INSURANCE. The Management Committee, or Manager, shall
obtain and maintain at all times insurance of the type and kind stated in this
Declaration, and including, at the discretion of the Management Committee,
risks of a similar or dissimilar nature, as are or shall hereafter customarily be
covered with respect to other subdivisions similar in use, issued by responsible
insurance companies authorized to do business in Wyoming. The fire and
extended coverage insurance, including vandalism and malicious mischief, to
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 17 OF 26
000384
be maintained as to the townhome units shall also cover all fixtures, interior
walls, and partitions, decorated and finished surfaces of perimeter walls, floors,
and ceilings, doors, windows and other elements or materials comprising a part
of the townhome units. The insurance shall be carried in blanket policy form
naming the Management Committee as the insured, as attorney -in -fact for all
of the townhome unit owners, at their common expense, which policy or
policies shall contain a standard non contributory mortgage clause in favor of
each first mortgagee, and a non cancellation clause (whether or not requested
by the owners of the townhome units) providing that such policy or policies
may not be cancelled except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof
to the Management Committee, each first mortgagee, and every other person in
interest who shall have requested such notice of the insurer. The Management
Committee, or the Manager, shall also obtain and maintain public liability
insurance insuring each member of the Management Committee, the Manager,
if any, the Association, and the owners against any liability to the owners or
any other person incident to the ownership of or use of the Subdivision or any
part thereof. Limits of liability under such insurance shall not be less than
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) for anyone person injured, One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) for each occurrence, and Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00) for property damage for each occurrence. It is
expressly contemplated that the Management Committee may, in its discretion,
obtain insurance with higher limits and insurance against risks (such as
earthquake damage) which are not specifically referred to herein. The
Management Committee may also obtain insurance with relatively high
deductibles. Owners shall carry their own insurance (and to require renters
insurance for rental units) to cover potential liability for payment of damages,
such as the deductible amounts, which are not insured by the Association. All
insurance policies obtained by the Association shall be reviewed at least
annually by the Management Committee.
Each owner, upon becoming an owner, shall be deemed to have
constituted and appointed, and does hereby so constitute and appoint the
Management Committee as his or her true and lawful attorney -in -fact to act in
all matters concerning the purchase and maintenance of all types of property
and liability insurance pertaining to the Subdivision. Each owner does further
hereby agree, without limitation on the generality of the foregoing, and each
mortgagee, upon becoming a mortgagee or holder (as trustee or as beneficiary)
of a deed of trust of a townhome unit does hereby agree, that the Management
Committee, as attorney -in -fact, shall have full power and authority in addition
to the powers above given, to purchase and maintain such insurance, and
remit premiums therefor, to collect proceeds and to use the same, and
distribute the same to the Management Committee, owners and mortgagees, as
their interests may appear, all pursuant to and subject to applicable statutes
and the provisions of this Declaration, and to execute all documents and do all
things on behalf of each owner and the Management Committee as shall be
necessary or convenient to the accomplishment of the foregoing.

OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 18 OF 26
000365
33. OWNER'S PERSONAL OBLIGATIONS. The amount of the
common expenses assessed against each townhome unit shall be the personal
and individual debt of the owner(s) thereof. No owner may exempt himself from
liability for his or her contribution towards the common expenses by waiver of
the use or enjoyment of any of the common elements or by abandonment of his
or her townhome unit. Both the Management Committee and the Manager
shall have the responsibility to take prompt action to collect any unpaid
assessment that remains unpaid more than twenty (20) days from the due date
for payment thereof. In the event of default in the payment of an assessment,
the owner shall be obligated to pay interest on the amount of the assessment
from the due date thereof, together with all expenses incurred, including
attorney's fees, together with such late charges and interest as are provided in
this Declaration. Suit to recover a money judgment for unpaid common
expenses shall be maintainable without foreclosing or waiving the lien securing
the same.
34. FORECLOSURE OF LIEN. In the event that a lien is created on a
townhome unit for unpaid common expenses, the Management Committee or
the Manager shall prepare a written notice indicating the amount of such
unpaid indebtedness, the name of the owner or owners, and a description of
the townhome unit. Such notice shall be signed by a member of the
Management Committee or by the Manager, and shall be recorded in the Office
of the County Clerk of Lincoln County, Wyoming. Such lien shall attach from
the due date of the assessment. In any suit to foreclose the lien against any
owner of a townhome unit, the Management Committee may represent itself in
like manner as any mortgagee of real property. The Management Committee,
acting on behalf of the owners, shall have the power to bid and acquire such
townhome unit at a foreclosure sale, and to lease, mortgage, vote the votes
appurtenant to convey, or otherwise deal with the same. The delinquent owner
shall be required to pay the costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, for
the filing of any lien, and any foreclosure proceedings related thereto, as well as
to pay a reasonable rent for the subject townhome unit until sale or
foreclosure. Suit to recover a money judgment for unpaid common expenses
shall be maintainable with all costs and reasonable attorney's fees without
foreclosing or waiving the lien securing the same.
Any encumbrancer holding a lien on a townhome unit may pay any
unpaid common expenses payable with respect to such townhome unit, and
upon such payment such encumbrancer shall have a lien. The holder of any
mortgage or first deed of trust which is prior to any assessment lien, upon
becoming any owner of a townhome unit, pursuant to foreclosure, conveyance
in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise, shall be subject to all assessments, and the
lien thereof, made after such holder becomes such owner of a townhome unit.
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 19 OF 26
000300
35. MORTGAGES. An owner shall have the right from time to time to
mortgage or encumber his or her interest by deed of trust, mortgage, or other
security instrument. The owner of a townhome unit may create mortgages,
liens, or encumbrances subject to the following: any such conditions,
covenants, restrictions, uses, limitations, obligations shall be subject to the
lien for common expenses and other obligations created by this Declaration;
and the mortgagee under any mortgage shall release, for the purpose of
restoration of any improvements upon the mortgaged townhome unit, all of his
or her right, title, and interest in and to the proceeds under all insurance
policies upon the unit and project. Such release shall be furnished forthwith
by a mortgagee upon written request of one or more of the members of the
Management Committee, and if such request is not granted, such release may
be executed by the Management Committee as attorney -in -fact for such
mortgagee.
36. RECONSTRUCTION. This Declaration does hereby make
mandatory the irrevocable appointment of an attorney -in -fact to deal with all
improvements within the Subdivision upon destruction, for repair,
reconstruction, or obsolescence. Title to any townhome unit is declared and
expressly made subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and acceptance by
any grantee of a deed or other instrument of conveyance from the Declarant or
from any owner or grantor shall constitute appointment of the attorney -in -fact
herein provided. All of the owners irrevocably constitute and appoint the
Management Committee their true and lawful attorney -in -fact, to act in their
name, place, and stead for the purposes of dealing with the improvements
upon destruction or obsolescence as is hereinafter provided. As attorney -in-
fact, the Management Committee shall have full and complete authorization,
right, and power to make, execute, and deliver any contract, deed, or any other
instrument with respect to the interest of an owner that is necessary and
appropriate to exercise the powers herein granted. Repair and reconstruction
of improvements as used in the succeeding subparagraphs means restoring
improvements to substantially the same vertical and horizontal boundaries as
before. The proceeds of any insurance collected shall be available to the
Management Committee for the purpose of repair, restoration, reconstruction,
or replacements unless the owners and first mortgagees agree not to build in
accordance with the provisions set forth hereinafter.
a. In the event of damage or destruction due to fire or other disaster,
the insurance proceeds, if sufficient to reconstruct improvements, shall be
applied by the Management Committee, as attorney -in -fact, to such
reconstruction, and improvements shall be promptly repaired and
reconstructed. The Management Committee shall have full authority, right and
power, as attorney -in -fact, to cause the repair and restoration of the
improvements.
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 20 OF 26
00036'7
b. If the insurance proceeds are insufficient to repair and reconstruct
improvements, and if such damage is to one -third (1/3) or fewer townhome
units, such damage or destruction shall be promptly repaired and
reconstructed by the Management Committee, as attorney -in -fact, using the
proceeds of insurance and the proceeds of an assessment to be made in the
manner hereinafter set out. If any mortgage or trust deed holder of any
damaged townhome unit required and received payment of any part of the
insurance proceeds, the owner of that townhome unit shall pay to the
Management Committee the amount so received by such mortgagee or trust
deed holder for use by the Management Committee, with the balance of the
insurance proceeds, in repairing and reconstructing pursuant hereto. The
insurance proceeds, together with payments made by the owner or owners
shall be held in a building account for use in repairs and reconstruction
pursuant hereto. Any deficiency in the building account shall be assessed
against the owners as a common expense. Such assessment shall be payable
within ninety (90) days after written notice thereof to the owners. The
Management Committee shall have full authority, right and power, as attorney
in -fact, to cause the repair or restoration of improvements using all of the
insurance proceeds and the owner assessment. The assessment provided for
herein shall be a debt of each owner and a lien on his townhome unit and may
be enforced and collected as is provided in this Declaration. In addition
thereto, the Management Committee, as attorney -in -fact, shall have the
absolute right and power to sell the townhome unit of any owner refusing or
failing to pay such deficiency assessment within the time provided, and if not
so paid, the Management Committee shall cause to be recorded a notice that
the townhome unit of the delinquent owner shall be required to pay to the
Management Committee the costs and expenses for filing the notices, interest
at the rate of ten percent (10 per annum on the amount of the assessment
from and after said ninety (90) day period, and all reasonable attorney's fees
incurred in selling the townhome unit and collecting said assessment.
The proceeds derived from the sale of such townhome unit shall be used
and disbursed by the Management Committee, as the attorney -in -fact, in the
following order:
1. For payment of taxes and special assessment liens in favor
or any assessing entity, and the customary expenses of sale;
2. For payment of the balance of the lien of any first mortgage
or trust deed, with interest any prepayment penalty;
3. For payment of unpaid common expenses, the assessment,
with interest, made for repair and reconstruction of the property, and all
costs, expenses, and fees incurred by the Management Committee in
selling such townhome unit and collecting the assessment, not paid
pursuant to I. above;
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 21 OF 26
000368
4. For payment of junior liens and encumbrances in the order
of and to the extent of their priority; and
5. The balance remaining, if any, shall be paid to the owner
based on the percentages set forth in Exhibit A hereto.
c. If the insurance proceeds are insufficient to repair and reconstruct
the damaged improvements, and if such damage is to more than one -third
(1/3) of the townhome units, and if the owners representing an aggregate
ownership interest of fifty -one percent (51 or more, of the general common
elements do not voluntarily, within one hundred (100) days after such damage,
make provisions for reconstruction, which plan must have the unanimous
approval or consent of every holder of a first mortgage then of record, the
Management Committee shall forthwith record a notice setting forth such fact
or facts, and upon the recording of such notice, the entire Subdivision shall be
sold by the Management Committee pursuant to the provisions of this
paragraph, as attorney -in -fact for all of the owners, free and clear of the
provisions contained in this Declaration and the plat or plats that have been
recorded to establish the Subdivision. The insurance settlement proceeds shall
be collected by the Management Committee, and such proceeds shall be
divided by the Management Committee according to each owner's percentage
interest in the general common elements, and such divided proceeds shall be
paid into separate accounts, each account representing one of the townhome
unit designations and the name or names of the owners. The total funds of
each account shall be used and disbursed, without contribution from one
account to another, by the Management Committee, as attorney -in -fact, for the
same purposes and in the same order as is provided in subparagraph (b) 1
through 5 of this paragraph.
If the owners representing an aggregate ownership interest of fifty -one
percent (51 or more, of the townhome units adopt a plan for reconstruction,
which plan has the unanimous approval of all holders of first mortgages then of
record, then all of the owners shall be bound by the terms and other provisions
of such plan. Any assessment made in connection with such plan, shall be a
lien, and may be enforced to the extent and in the manner set out in
subparagraph (b) of this paragraph and shall be due and payable as provided
by the terms of such plan, but not sooner than ninety (90) days after written
notice thereof. The Management Committee shall have full authority, right and
power, as attorney -in -fact, to cause the repair or restoration of improvements
using all of the insurance proceeds and any unit owner's payments for such
purpose notwithstanding the failure of any owner to pay an assessment.
d. The owners representing an aggregate ownership interest of one
third (1/3) of the common elements may agree that the improvements should
be razed and new ones built, and adopt a plan for the renewal and
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 22 OF 26
000369
reconstruction, which plan shall require the unanimous approval of all holders
of first mortgages of record at the time of the adoption of such plan. If a plan
for the renewal or reconstruction shall be payable by all of the owners as
common expenses; provided, however, that an owner not a party to such plan
for renewal or reconstruction may give written notice to the Management
Committee within thirty (30) days after the date of option of such plan that
such unit shall be purchased by the Management Committee for the fair
market value thereof. The Management Committee shall then have sixty (60)
days thereafter within which to cancel such plan. If such plan is not canceled,
the townhome unit of the requesting owner shall be purchased according to the
following procedures. If such owner and the Management Committee can agree
on the fair market value thereof, then such sale shall be consummated within
sixty (60) days thereafter. If the parties are unable to agree, the date when
either party notifies the other that he or she or it is unable to agree with the
other on the sixtieth (60th) day after notice demanding purchase is given to the
Management Committee, whichever date is earlier, shall be the
"commencement date" from which all periods of time mentioned herein shall be
measured. Within ten (10) days following the commencement date, each party
shall nominate in writing (and give notice of such nomination to the other
party) an appraiser. If either party fails to make such a nomination, the
appraiser nominated shall within five (5) days after default by the other party,
appoint and associate with him or her another appraiser. If the two (2)
designated or selected appraisers are unable to agree, they shall appoint
another appraiser to be umpire between them, if they can agree on such
person. If they are unable to agree upon such umpire, each appraiser
previously appointed shall nominate two (2) appraisers, and from the names of
the four (4) appraisers so nominated one (1) shall be drawn by unit by any
judge of any court of record in Wyoming, and the name so drawn shall be such
umpire. The nominations from whom the umpire is to be drawn shall be
submitted within ten (10) days of the failure of the two (2) appraisers to agree,
which, in any event, shall not be later than twenty (20) days following the
appointment of the second (2nd) appraiser. The decision of the appraisers to
the fair market value, or in the case of their disagreement, then such decision
of the umpire, shall be final and binding. The expenses and fees of such
appraisers shall be borne equally by the Management Committee and the
owner. The sale shall be consummated within fifteen (15) days thereafter and
the Management Committee, as attorney -in -fact shall pay the purchase price
therefore in cash and shall disburse such purchase price for the same
purposes and in the same order as is provided in subparagraph (b) 1. through
5. of this paragraph, except as modified herein. At the time of payment to such
owner, such owner shall deliver to the Management Committee, or its nominee,
a good and sufficient warranty deed to the townhome unit, fully executed and
in recordable form, free and clear of all liens, charges and encumbrances.
37. GENERAL RESERVATIONS. Declarant reserves the right until
completion of the Subdivision and until a written statement to that effect is
WIND SOCK TOWNHOMES DECLARATION OF TOWNHOME OWNERSHIP AND DECLARATION
OF RESTRICTIONS, COVENANTS AND CONDITIONS
PAGE 23 OF 26
000370
recorded by Declarant, to establish easements, reservations, exceptions, and
exclusions and for the best interests of the Subdivision.
38. COVENANTS TO RUN WITH LAND. The Property is hereby made
subject to the covenants, conditions, restrictions, reservations, assessments,
charges and liens contained in this Declaration, all of which shall be
enforceable equitable servitudes and shall run with the land. Each of the
covenants of this Declaration shall run with the real property which is the
subject of this Declaration, and each and every townhome unit and every
interest therein or pertaining thereto, shall bind Declarant, its successors,
grantees, and assigns, and all parties claiming by, through, or under
Declarant. Each grantee of any townhome unit shall, by acceptance of the
deed or other conveyance of any such townhome unit, be conclusively deemed
to have consented to and agreed to each to each and all of said covenants for
himself or herself and his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors
and assigns, and does, by said acceptance, covenant for himself or herself and
his or her heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns, to
observe, perform and be bound by each and all of said covenants.
39. ASSIGNMENT OF DECLARANT'S RIGHTS. Declarant reserves
the right to vest any entity with all or any of the rights, interests, privileges,
easements, powers and duties herein retained or reserved by Declarant, by a
supplemental declaration and assignment which shall be effective when
recorded in the Lincoln County Clerk's Office, Kemmerer, Wyoming, and
Declarant shall thereupon be relieved and discharged from every duty so vested
in such other entity.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Declaration has been executed by the
Declarant effective as of the date of recordation hereof.
