ARTICLE 9 BUDGET AND ASSESSMENT FOR COMMON EXPENSES 9.1 Fiscal Year; Preparation of Budget The Board may adopt such fiscal year for the Association as it deems to be convenient. Unless another year is adopted, the fiscal year will be the calendar year. As soon as the Board in its discretion deems advisable, and prior to the expiration of each fiscal year thereafter,the Board shall establish a budget for the costs during the ensuing fiscal year of maintaining the Common Area,the private easement areas,the landscape area and all other areas which the Association is responsible to maintain. The Board shall then assess each Lot with its pro rata share of such estimated costs,based upon the number of Lots then-within the Property and the appropriate number of lots required to share in such costs based on the beneficial interest of such lots in the Private Easements as described in the Plat and in this Declaration. The Board,at its election, may require the Owners to pay the amount assessed in equal monthly or quarterly installments or in a lump sum annual installment.

The first annual assessment shall be adjusted according to the number of months remaining in the fiscal year. ARTICLE 10 LIEN AND COLLECTION OF ASSESSMENTS 10.1 Assessments Are a Lien; Priority All unpaid sums assessed by the Association for the share of the common expenses chargeable to any Lot and any sums specially assessed to any Lot under the authority of this Declaration shall constitute a lien on the Lot and all its appurtenances from the date the assessment becomes due and until fully paid. The lien for such unpaid assessments shall be subordinate to tax liens on the Lot in favor of any assessing unit and/or special district, and to all sums unpaid on all First Mortgages of record,but,to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall have priority over all other liens against the Lot. A First Mortgagee that obtains possession through a Mortgage foreclosure or deed of trust sale, or by taking a deed in lieu of foreclosure or sale, or a purchaser at a foreclosure sale, shall take the Lot free of any claims for the share of common expenses or assessments by the Association chargeable to the Lot which became due before such possession,but will be liable for the common expenses and assessments that accrue after the taking of possession. A Lot's past-due share of common expenses or assessments shall become new common expenses chargeable to all of the Lot Owners, including the Mortgagee or foreclosure sale purchaser and their successors and assigns, in proportion to the number of Lots owned by each of them. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing,however,the Owner and the real estate contract purchaser shall continue to be personally liable for past due assessments as provided in Section 10.3. For purposes of this Section,"Mortgage"does not include a real estate contract and"Mortgagee"does not include the vendor or the assignee or designee of a vendor of a real estate contract. 10.2 Lien May Be Foreclosed The lien for delinquent assessments may be foreclosed by suit by the Board, acting on behalf of the Association, in like manner as the foreclosure of a mortgage of real property. The Board,acting on behalf of the Association, shall have the power to bid on the Lot at the foreclosure sale, and to acquire and hold, lease,mortgage and convey the same. 10.3 Assessments Are Personal Obligations 17 • • In addition to constituting a lien on the Lot, all sums assessed by the Association chargeable to any Lot,together with interest, late charges, costs and attorneys' fees in the event of delinquency, shall be the joint and several personal obligations of the Owner and any contract purchaser of the Lot when the assessment is made and their grantees. Suit to recover personal judgment for any delinquent assessments shall be maintainable without foreclosing or waiving the liens securing them. 10.4 Late Charges and Interest on Delinquent Assessments The Board may from time to time establish late charges and a rate of interest to be charged on assessments delinquent for a period of more than ten(10) days after the date when due. In the absence of another established,nonusurious rate, delinquent assessments shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent(12%)per annum. If an installment on an assessment against a Lot is not paid when due,the Board may elect to declare the entire assessment against the Lot for the remainder of the fiscal year to be immediately due and payable. 10.5 Recovery of Attorneys' Fees and Costs In any action to correct delinquent assessments,the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover as a part of its judgment a reasonable sum for attorneys' fees and all costs and expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the action, in addition to taxable costs permitted by law. 10.6 Remedies Cumulative The remedies provided herein are cumulative and the Board may pursue them, and any other remedies which may be available under law although not expressed herein, either concurrently or in any order.

The receipt by the Board of payment of any assessment from an Owner,with knowledge of any breach by the Owner, shall not be a waiver of the breach. No waiver by the Board of any requirement shall be effective unless expressed in writing and signed for the Board. ARTICLE 12 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY So long as a Board member,or Association member, or Declarant has acted in good faith, without willful or intentional misconduct,upon the basis of such information as is then possessed by such Person,then no such Person shall be personally liable to any Owner, or to any other 18 f y Person, including the Association, for any damage, loss or prejudice suffered or claimed on account of any act, omission, error or negligence of such Person;provided,that this Article shall not apply where the consequences of such act,omission, error or negligence are covered by any insurance actually obtained by the Board. ARTICLE 13 INDEMNIFICATION Each Board member and Declarant shall be indemnified by the Association against all expenses and liabilities, including attorneys' fees,reasonably incurred by or imposed,in connection with any proceeding to which such party may be a party, or in which such party may become involved,by reason of holding or having held such position, or any settlement thereof, whether or not such party holds such position at the time such expenses or liabilities are incurred, except to the extent such expenses and liabilities are covered by insurance and except in such cases wherein such Board member or Declarant is adjudged guilty of willful misfeasance in the performance of his or her duties;provided,that in the event of a settlement,the indemnification shall apply only when the Board approves such settlement and reimbursement as being for the best interests of the Association.

The special assessment shall be payable, at the determination of the Board, in either monthly or quarterly installments or in a single lump sum amount. The Board shall notify each Owner of any such special assessment not less than twenty(20) days prior to the date such special assessment or the first installment thereon is due and payable, which notice shall be accompanied by a reasonably detailed statement of the Board's estimated costs and expenses of repairing and/or restoring the Common Areas. 19 I � ARTICLE 16 AMENDMENTS OF DECLARATION 16.1 Amendments of Declarant Prior to the Transition Date, Declarant may amend this Declaration by an instrument in writing filed and recorded in the Records of King County, Washington,without the approval of any Owner or Mortgagee; provided,however,that(a)in the event that such amendment materially alters or changes any Owner's right to the use and enjoyment of his Lot or the Common Areas as set forth in this Declaration or adversely affects the title to any Lot, such amendment shall be valid only upon the written consent thereto by a majority in number of the then-existing Owners affected thereby, or(b) in the event that such amendment would materially and adversely affect the security,title and interest of any Mortgagee, such amendment shall be valid only upon the written consent thereto of all such Mortgagees so affected.
