Section 6. Assessments.
(A) Creation and Commencement. Each Neighborhood Lot Owner (other than Exempt
Owners) of any Neighborhood Lot by acceptance of a deed thereto, whether or not it shall be so
expressed in such deed, is deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the Amenity Association: (i)
Annual Amenity Assessments, (ii) Amenity Capital Assessments, (iii) Amenity Special Assessments
and (iv) Amenity Violation Assessments per the provisions set forth below, all of which shall
commence on the date of the Notice of Substantial Completion. The first Annual Amenity
Assessment shall be due, on a date determined by the Amenity Board, for the calendar year in which
the Notice of Substantial Completion is given, shall be prorated for such calendar year from the date
of the Notice of Substantial Completion and shall be due and owing in full for each calendar year
thereafter.
(B) Lien and Personal Obligation. All Assessments provided for in this Amenity
Declaration, together with interest thereon and costs of collection thereof, shall be a charge on the
land and shall be a continuing lien upon the Neighborhood Lot against which each Assessment is
made until paid in full. The Amenity Board, in its discretion, is hereby fully authorized to record
with the Recorder of Hamilton County a written instrument evidencing the lien, against the
applicable Neighborhood Lot, for any delinquent Assessments. Each Assessment, together with
interest thereon and costs of collection thereof, shall also be the personal obligation of the
Neighborhood Lot Owner at the time when the Assessment became due. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, and, except as hereinafter provided, without limiting the personal obligation of any such
Neighborhood Lot Owner, the Amenity Board, in its discretion may, from time to time, elect to
require the collection of any Assessments by and through a Neighborhood Association, which shall
then, per the terms of this Amenity Declaration, allocate and pro -rate the Assessments of the
Amenity Association to Neighborhood Lot Owners within the Neighborhood made the subject of
such Neighborhood Association, and such Neighborhood Association, along with the Neighborhood
Lot Owners within the Neighborhood made the subject of such Neighborhood Association, shall be
personally liable therefore.
(C) Assessment.
1. The Annual Amenity Assessment levied by the Amenity Association shall be used
exclusively for the Amenity Obligations. The Amenity Board, in its discretion, from time to
5
time may but shall not be obligated to establish and maintain a reserve fund for replacements by
the allocation from the Annual Amenity Assessment and the payment to such reserve fund of an
amount determined annually by the Amenity Board, in its discretion, to be sufficient to meet the
cost of periodic significant capital repairs, renewals and replacements of the Amenities. The
Annual Amenity Assessment shall be paid annually, on a date established by the Amenity
Board.
2. The Annual Amenity Assessment shall be allocated, pro -rata and uniformly, among
all Neighborhood Lot Owners other than Exempt Owners. The Amount of the Annual
Assessment to be paid by each such Neighborhood Lot Owner, other than an Exempt Owners,
shall be equal to the lesser of (i) the Annual Budget divided by three hundred (300) or (ii) the
Annual Budget divided by the total number of Neighborhood Lots that are not occupied by an
Exempt Owner.
(D) Amenity Capital Assessment. The Amenity Board, in its discretion, may levy
against all Neighborhood Lot Owners other than Exempt Owners, in any calendar year, a Capital
Assessment applicable to that year and not more than the next four (4) succeeding calendar years for
the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part, the cost of any repair, or replacement of a capital
improvement upon the Amenity Area, including any of the Amenities.
(E) Amenity Special Assessments. In the event the Annual Amenity Assessment
for any calendar year after the Amenity Applicable Date is inadequate to cover the costs incurred by
the Amenity Association to satisfy the Amenity Obligations in such calendar year, the Amenity
Board in its discretion may levy upon all Neighborhood Lot Owners other than Exempt Owners, as
an Amenity Special Assessment, to cure such inadequacy. Such Amenity Special Assessment shall
be allocated among the Neighborhood Lot Owners in the same manner as the Annual Amenity
Assessment is allocated among Neighborhood Lot Owners.
(F) Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments: Remedies of the Amenity Association.
Any Assessments not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date may, upon resolution of the
Amenity Board, bear interest from the due date at a percentage rate no greater than the current
statutory maximum annual interest rate, to be set by the Amenity Board for each Assessment year.
The Amenity Association shall be entitled to institute in any court of competent jurisdiction any
lawful action to collect a delinquent Assessment and to foreclose the lien of such delinquent
Assessments in the same manner in which mortgages are foreclosed in the State of Indiana, and shall
also be entitled to collect any expenses or costs, including reasonable attorney's fees incurred by the
Amenity Association in collecting such Assessment. If the Amenity Association has provided for
collection of any Assessment in installments, upon default in the payment of any one or more
installments, the Amenity Association may accelerate payment and declare the entire balance of said
Assessment due and payable in full. No Neighborhood Lot Owner may waive or otherwise escape
liability for the Assessments provided for herein by nonuse of the Amenity Area or the Amenities or
by abandonment of a Neighborhood Lot.
(G) Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. To the extent specified herein, the lien of
the Assessments provided for herein against a Neighborhood Lot shall be subordinate to the lien of
any first mortgage recorded in the Office of the Recorder of Hamilton County, Indiana, covering
such Lot and to any valid tax or special assessment lien on such Lot in favor of any governmental
taxing or assessing authority. Sale or transfer of any Neighborhood Lot shall not affect the lien of
any Assessment. The sale or transfer of any Neighborhood Lot pursuant to mortgage foreclosure or
any proceeding in lieu thereof shall, however, extinguish the lien of such Assessments as to
payments which became due more than six (6) months prior to such sale or transfer. No sale or
transfer shall relieve such Lot from liability for any Assessments thereafter becoming due or from the
lien thereof.
(H) Certificates. The Amenity Association shall, upon demand in writing by an
Neighborhood Lot Owner, at any time, furnish a certificate in writing signed by an officer of the
Amenity Association that the Assessments by the Amenity Association on a Neighborhood Lot have
been paid or that certain such Assessments remain unpaid, as the case may be.
6
(1) Amenity Association's Annual Budget. 13y a majority vote of the Amenity
Directors, the Amenity Board in its discretion shall adopt the Amenity Association's Annual Budget
for the subsequent calendar year, which shall provide for allocation of expenses in such a manner
that the Amenity Obligations will be met. The Amenity Board may from time to time, in its
discretion, include in the Amenity Association's Annual Budget a capital reserve in an amount
sufficient to meet the projected need with respect to both amount and timing of significant
reconstruction, repair or replacement of the Amenities.
(J) Amenity Violation Assessment. In addition to all other Assessments authorized in
this Amenity Declaration, the Amenity Board, in its discretion, may levy an Amenity Violation
Assessment against a Neighborhood Lot Owner, (i) for a violation of this Amenity Declaration or (ii)
for damages if any portion of the Amenity Area or the Amenities is damaged due to the willful or
negligent act or omission of such Neighborhood Lot Occupant or Neighborhood Lot Occupant's
guest or invitee. In the event of such damage, the Amenity Board shall have the right to undertake
the necessary maintenance, repair or replacement. The choice between repair or replacement is in the
discretion of the Amenity Board.
(K) General Assessment. The Amenity Association shall pay a General
Assessment, as that term is defined in the Declaration, in an amount to be determined by the
Declarant, in its discretion, in the Notice of Substantial Completion. In determining such General
Assessment, the Declarant may consider any and all factors deemed relevant by the Declarant in its
discretion including, without limitation, the Valuation Table, the impact on the Drainage System and
the amount of post - development impervious surface within the Parcel.
Section 7. Enforcement. The Declarant, Corporate Board, Amenity Association, Amenity Declarant, any
Neighborhood Association, any Neighborhood Declarant and any Neighborhood Lot Owner, together or
individually, shall have the right to enforce, by proceeding at law or in equity all provisions, covenants, restrictions,
easements, charges, Assessments and liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration, but neither the Declarant, nor the
Corporate Board, nor the Amenity Declarant, nor any Neighborhood Association, nor any Neighborhood Declarant,
nor any Neighborhood Lot Owner, nor any Person shall be liable for damage of any kind to any Person for failure to
enforce or carry out any of the provisions, covenants, restrictions, easements, charges, Assessments and liens set
forth in this Amenity Declaration. No delay or failure by any Person to enforce any of the covenants, restrictions,
easements, charges, Assessments and liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration or to invoke any available remedy
with respect to a violation or violations thereof shall under any circumstances be deemed or held to be a waiver by
that Person of the right to do so thereafter, or an estoppel of that Person to assert any right available to such Person
upon the occurrence, recurrence or continuation of any violation or violations of the provisions, covenants,
restrictions, easements, charges and liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration. In any action to enforce this
Amenity Declaration, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover costs of litigation and reasonable attomeys'
fees.
Section 8. Amendments.
(A) By Amenity Declarant. The Amenity Declarant hereby reserves the right, at any
time prior to the Amenity Applicable Date, to unilaterally amend and revise the provisions,
covenants, restrictions, easements, charges, Assessments and liens set forth in this Amenity

Office of the Recorder of Hamilton County, Indiana.

Amenity Declaration are for convenience of reference only, and none of them shall be used as an aid to the
construction of any provision of this Amenity Declaration. Wherever and whenever applicable, the singular form of
any word shall be taken to mean or apply to the plural, and the masculine form shall be taken to mean or apply to the
feminine or to the neuter. The word "herein" shall mean the entire Amenity Declaration and shall not mean only the
paragraph or Section in which the word "herein" appears.
Section 10. Duration. This Amenity Declaration and the covenants, restrictions, easements, charges and
liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration are for the mutual benefit and protection of the present and future
Neighborhoods, Neighborhood Lot Owners, the Amenity Association, and Amenity Declarant, and shall run with the
land and shall be binding on all parties and all Persons claiming under them until January 1, 2070, at which time this
Amenity Declaration and its covenants and covenants, restrictions, easements, charges and liens set forth in this
Amenity Declaration shall be automatically extended for successive periods of ten (10) years, unless amended per
the terms and conditions set forth in Section 10 above.

from, the rest of the provisions, covenants restrictions, easements, charges, Assessments and liens set forth in this

Assessments and liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration, and of and from every combination of the provisions,
covenants, provisions, restrictions, easements, charges, Assessments and liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration.

land, that holding shall be without effect upon the validity, enforceability or "running" quality of any other one of the
other provisions, covenants, restrictions, charges, Assessments or liens set forth in this Amenity Declaration.
Section 12. Right to Approve Additional Covenants. Prior to the Amenity Applicable Date, no Person
shall record any declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions, or similar instrument affecting any portion of
the Parcel without Amenity Declarant's review and written consent. Any attempted recordation without such
consent shall result in such instrument being void and of no force and effect unless subsequently approved by
written consent signed and recorded by Amenity Declarant in the Office of the Recorder of Hamilton County,
Indiana.
