Special Assessments shall be allocated among the Lots in the same manner as regular Assessments, except in the case of an Assessment levied by the Board against a Member to reimburse the Association for costs incurred in bringing the Member and Member’s Lot into compliance with provisions of the Project Documents. C. Capital Contribution. Upon closing of purchase of each developed Residential Lot or Residential Unit by the initial Owner occupant, the new Owner will pay a one-time fee of $1,000 for each Residential Lot or Unit purchased, payable to the South Range Crossing Residential Owners Association capital contribution fund. These funds are intended to fund future maintenance and capital improvement items within the Project and its Common Open Spaces, parks and streets. D. Community Association Management. Upon closing of purchase of each developed Residential Lot or Residential Unit by the initial Owner occupant, and annually thereafter together with and in addition to other regular Assessments, the Owner shall pay a set amount for each Residential Lot or Unit for payment of the South Range Crossing Residential Owners Association’s share of the Community Association Manager. Initially the annual community association fee is $300 per Residential Lot or Unit. The community association fee amount is subject to periodic adjustment by the CAM, subject to the limitation described in section 4.4 below. 4.4 Restrictions on Increases in Assessments. The Board may not impose a CAM Assessment or regular Assessment on any Lot which is more than twenty percent (20%) greater than the CAM or regular Assessment for the immediate preceding fiscal year, or levy a special Assessment to defray the cost of any action or undertaking on behalf of the Association which in the aggregate exceeds ten percent (10%) of the budgeted gross expenses of the Association for that fiscal year, without the vote or written assent of Members casting a majority of the votes at a meeting of the Association at which a quorum is present. Any meeting of the Association for purposes of complying with this section 4.4 shall be conducted in accordance with the Montana Non-Profit Corporation Act. The Board may increase regular Assessments by more than twenty percent (20%) over the regular Assessment for the immediately preceding fiscal year only if the Board has complied with the provisions set forth in the Bylaws and this Declaration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board, without Membership approval, may increase regular Assessments or levy special Assessments necessary for an emergency situation. For Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 16 purposes of this section, an emergency situation is one of the following: (1) an extraordinary expense required by an order of a court; (2) an extraordinary expense necessary to repair or maintain the Project or any part of it for which the Association is responsible where a threat to personal safety on the Project is discovered; or (3) an extraordinary expense necessary to repair or maintain the Project or any part of it for which the Association is responsible that could not have been reasonably foreseen by the Board in preparing and distributing the pro forma operating budget, provided, however that prior to the imposition or collection of the Assessment, the Board shall pass a resolution containing written findings as to the necessity of the extraordinary expense involved and why the expense was not or could not have been reasonably foreseen in the budgeting process and the resolution shall be distributed to the Members with the notice of the Assessment. The Association shall provide by first-class mail or electronic means if permitted via the Bylaws and the Montana Nonprofit Corporations Act notice to Owners of any increase in the regular or special Assessments of the Association not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the increased Assessment becoming due. 4.5 Notice and Quorum for Action Authorized Under Section 4.4. Any action authorized under section 4.4, which requires a vote of the Membership, shall be taken at a meeting called for that purpose, written notice of which shall be sent to all Members not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days in advance of the meeting, specifying the place, day and hour of the meeting and, in the case of a special meeting, the nature of the business to be undertaken. The action may also be taken without a meeting pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws. 4.6 Division of Assessments – Services for Less than All Lots. All Assessments, both regular and special, shall be levied among the Owners proportionately based on the relative acreage of the developable areas of their respective Lots. Lots not developable will not be included in the calculation of division of Assessments. Assessments shall be further allocated among Residential Lots or Units in future phases of development, as described in Section 4.1(2), except for assessments allocated to less than all of the Lots as described further in this subsection. Regular Assessments shall be collected on a monthly basis unless the Board directs otherwise. Special Assessments may be collected in one payment or periodically as the Board shall direct. The Association may, at any time from time to time, pay expenses associated with services or facilities (not otherwise required or authorized under this Declaration to be provided by the Association) for any Sub-Association or other areas of the Property containing less than all of the Lots. In that case, the Owners of such Lots shall pay the Association for such services as, when and in such manner as may be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion from time to time, which amounts shall be in addition to the annual and special assessments, and which amounts shall include overhead expenses of the Association. 4.7 Date of Commencement of Regular Assessment; Due Dates. The regular Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 17 Assessments provided for herein shall commence as to each Lot in the Initial Phase on the first day of the month following the conveyance from Declarant of the Lot to an Owner in the Initial Phase. In subsequent phases, the regular Assessments against each Lot in each phase shall commence on the first day of the month following the conveyance from Declarant of the Lot to an Owner in such phase. As Lots and Units in each phase become subject to Assessments, the Board shall determine whether the amount of regular Assessments payable by all Owners will change and, if so, the amount of such change, and the Board shall then send out revised Assessment notices as appropriate. Subject to the provisions of section 4.3, the Board of Directors shall use its best efforts to fix the amount of the regular Assessments against each Lot and send written notice thereof to every Owner at least forty-five (45) days in advance of each fiscal year, provided that failure to comply with the foregoing shall not affect the validity of any Assessment levied by the Board. The due dates shall be established by the Board of Directors. The Association shall, upon demand, and for a reasonable charge, furnish a certificate signed by an officer of the Association stating whether the Assessments on a specified Lot have been paid. Such a certificate shall be conclusive evidence of such payment. 4.8 Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments. Any Assessment not paid within fifteen (15) days after the due date shall be delinquent, shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum from thirty (30) days after the due date until paid, and shall incur a late payment penalty in an amount to be set by the Board from time to time, such interest and penalties not to exceed the maximum permitted under Montana law. 4.9 Transfer of Lot, by Sale or Foreclosure. Sale, transfer or foreclosure of any Lot or Unit shall not affect the Assessment lien. If a Lot or Unit is transferred, both the grantee and the grantor shall remain liable to the Association for all unpaid Assessments against the Lot through and including the date of the transfer. The grantee shall be entitled to a statement from the Association, dated as of the date of transfer, setting forth the amount of the unpaid Assessments against the Lot to be transferred and the Lot shall not be subject to a lien for unpaid Assessments in excess of the amount set forth in the statement; provided, however, the grantee shall be liable for any Assessments that become due after the date of the transfer. 4.10 Priorities; Enforcement; Remedies. (a) If an Owner fails to pay an Assessment when due, the Association has the right, and option, to bring legal action against the Owner to enforce collection of the unpaid and past-due Assessment or may impose a lien on the Lot or Unit owned by Owner, or both. Suit to recover a money judgment for unpaid Assessments and attorney’s fees shall be maintainable without foreclosing or waiving the lien securing the same. Before the Association may place a lien upon a Lot or Unit, the Association shall notify the Owner in writing by certified mail of the fee and penalty procedures of the Association, provide an itemized statement of the charges owed by the Owner, including the principal owed, any late charges, and the method of collection, any attorneys’ fees, and the collection practices used by the Association, including the right of the Association to the reasonable costs of collection. The Association may record a notice of Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 18 delinquent Assessment and establish a lien against the Lot or Unit of the delinquent Owner prior and superior to all other liens except (1) all taxes, bonds, Assessments and other levies which, by law, would be superior thereto, and (2) the prior lien or charge of any Mortgage of record (meaning any recorded Mortgage or deed of trust with first priority over other Mortgages or deeds of trust) made in good faith and for value. The notice of delinquent Assessment shall state the amount of the Assessment, collection costs, attorney’s fees, late charges and interest, a description of the Lot against which the Assessment and other sums are levied, the name of the record owner, and the name and address of the trustee authorized by the Association to enforce the lien by sale. The notice shall be signed by any officer of the Association, or any management agent retained by the Association and shall be mailed in the manner required under Montana law to all record owners of the Lot no later than 10 days after recordation. (b) After the expiration of thirty (30) days following the recordation of the lien, an Assessment lien may be enforced in any manner permitted by law, including sale by the court or sale by the trustee designated in the notice of delinquent Assessment. Any sale by the trustee shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of Montana law applicable to the exercise of powers of sale in Mortgages and deeds of trust, or in any other manner permitted by law. Nothing herein shall preclude the Association from bringing an action directly against an Owner for breach of the personal obligation to pay Assessments. (c) The Association, acting on behalf of the Owners, shall have the power to bid for the Lot at a foreclosure sale, and to acquire and hold, lease, mortgage and convey the same. (d) The Board may temporarily suspend the voting rights of a Member who is in default in payment of any Assessment, after notice and hearing, as provided in the Bylaws. (e) To the extent allowed under Montana law, the Association may file a lien against a Lot for fines and penalties for violation of restrictions, as well as monetary penalties imposed by the Association to reimburse the Association for costs incurred for repair of damage to Common Open Space or facilities for which the Owner, or guests or tenants of an Owner, were responsible. (f) The Association is not empowered to cause a forfeiture or abridgement of an Owner’s right to the full use and enjoyment of an Owner’s Lot on account of the failure by the Owner to comply with provisions of the Project Documents or Rules, except by judgment of a court or a decision arising out of binding arbitration or on account of a foreclosure or sale under power of sale for failure of the Owner to pay Assessments duly levied by the Association. (g) Each Owner waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the benefit of any Montana homestead or exemption laws in effect when any Assessment or installment becomes delinquent, or a lien is imposed. Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 19 4.11 Unallocated Taxes. In the event that any taxes are assessed against the Common Open Space, or the personal property of the Association, rather than against the Lots, said taxes shall be included in the Assessments made under the provisions of section 4.1 and, if necessary, a special Assessment may be levied against the Lots in an amount equal to said taxes, to be paid in two (2) installments, thirty (30) days prior to the due date of each tax installment.

All hazardous waste shall be disposed of properly by each Owner. 7.12 Liability of Owners for Damage to Common Open Space. The Owner of each Lot shall be liable to the Association for all damage to the Common Open Space improvements (including landscaping) caused by such Owner, Owner’s agents, employees, guests, invitees or pets, except for that portion of damage covered by insurance carried by the Association. The responsible Owner shall be charged with the cost of repairing such damage (including interest thereon) as described in section 5.1A. 7.13 Leasing of Lots. Owners may rent or lease their Residential Unit to others for residential purposes, except as may be prohibited in this Declaration or governing documents of any Sub-Association.

The Association shall obtain and maintain the following insurance: (1) A hazard policy insuring all improvements, equipment, and fixtures owned by the Association, unless the Board determines, in its sole discretion, that such insurance is not necessary; (2) a comprehensive general liability policy insuring the Association, its agents, the Owners and their respective household members, against liability incident to the ownership or use of the Common Open Space or any other Association owned or maintained real or personal property (in occurrence version form if obtainable); the amount of general liability insurance which the Association shall carry at all times shall be not less than the minimum amounts required by Montana law; (3) workers’ compensation insurance to the extent required by law (or such greater amount as the Board deems necessary); the Association shall obtain a Certificate of Insurance naming it as an additional insured in regard to workers’ compensation claims from any independent contractor who performs any service for the Association, if the receipt of such a certificate is practicable; (4) fidelity bonds or insurance covering officers, directors, and employees that have access to any Association funds; (5) officers and directors liability insurance, to the extent deemed appropriate by the Board in its discretion; (6) flood insurance if the Project is located in an area designated by an appropriate governmental agency as a special flood hazard area; and (7) such other insurance as the Board in its discretion considers necessary or advisable. Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 31 Each Owner appoints the Association or any insurance trustee designated by the Association to act on behalf of the Owners in connection with all insurance matters arising from any insurance policy maintained by the Association, including without limitation, representing the Owners in any proceeding, negotiation, settlement or agreement. Any insurance maintained by the Association shall contain “waiver of subrogation” as to the Association and its officers, directors and Members, the Owners and occupants of the Lots (including Declarant) and and cross-liability and severability of interest coverage insuring each insured against liability to each other insured. The Association shall periodically (and not less than once every three years) review all insurance policies maintained by the Association to determine the adequacy of the coverage and to adjust the policies accordingly. All individually owned insurance shall contain a waiver of subrogation as to the Association and its officers, directors and Members, the Owners and occupants of the Lots and mortgagees, and all Members are deemed to have waived subrogation rights as to the Association and/or other Members, whether or not their policies so provide. Each Owner shall be responsible for obtaining, maintaining and paying for such insurance as the Owner may deem reasonably necessary with respect to fire, casualty and liability involving such Owner’s Lot and all improvements and property thereon. All such individually carried insurance shall contain a waiver of subrogation by the carrier as to the other Owners, the Association, Declarant, and the Mortgagees of such Lot. The Association shall make available to Members upon request copies of the Association’s policies to enable Members to insure their Lots without duplicating insurance carried by the Association. The Association, and its directors and officers, shall have no liability to any Owner or Mortgagee if, after a good faith effort, it is unable to obtain the insurance required hereunder, because the insurance is no longer available or, if available, can be obtained only at a cost that the Board in its sole discretion determines is unreasonable under the circumstances, or the Members fail to approve any Assessment increase needed to fund the insurance premiums. In such event, the Board immediately shall notify each Member and any Mortgagee entitled to notice that the insurance will not be obtained or renewed. 9.2 Damage or Destruction. If any improvements or landscaping on any Lot are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, the Owner of such Lot may repair or reconstruct the improvement only in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by the Association or its representative as provided herein including but not limited to approval by the Committee. In the event that such an Owner elects not to rebuild any structures, said Owner shall be responsible for promptly removing from the Lot any and all debris, including any portion of a structure which may remain standing after partial damage or destruction, and the Owner shall landscape the Lot in the manner approved by the Committee and the Association. If an Owner fails to pay the cost of required demolition or re-landscaping, the Association may elect to pay for the uninsured portion of the cost and shall have the right to assess the Owner for the cost Declaration of CC&Rs and Reservations of Easements South Range Crossing Residential Subdivision Page 32 thereof and to enforce the Assessment as provided in this Declaration. If Common Open Space improvements are damaged or destroyed by fire or other casualty, the improvements shall be repaired or reconstructed substantially in accordance with the original as-built plans and specifications, modified as may be required by applicable building codes and regulations in force at the time of such repair or reconstruction, and subject to such alterations or upgrades as may be approved by the SRXRAC, unless either of the following occurs: (1) the cost of repair or reconstruction is more than fifty percent (50%) of the current replacement cost of all Common Open Space improvements, available insurance proceeds are not sufficient to pay for at least eighty-five percent (85%) of the cost of such repairs or reconstruction, and three-fourths (3/4) of the total voting power of the Association vote against such repair and reconstruction; or (2) available insurance proceeds are not sufficient to substantially repair or reconstruct the improvements within a reasonable time as determined by the Board, a special Assessment levied to supplement the insurance fails to receive the requisite approval (if such approval is required) as provided in section 4.4, and the Board, without the requirement of approval by the Owners, is unable to supplement the insurance by borrowing on behalf of the Association sufficient monies to enable the improvements to be substantially repaired or reconstructed within a reasonable time. If the Common Open Space improvement is not repaired or reconstructed in accordance with the foregoing, all available insurance proceeds shall be disbursed among all Owners and their respective Mortgagees in the same proportion that the Owners are assessed, subject to the rights of the Owners’ mortgagees, after first applying the proceeds to the cost of mitigating hazardous conditions on the Project, making provision for the continuance of public liability insurance to protect the interests of the Owners until the property can be sold, and complying with all other applicable requirements of governmental agencies. 9.3 Condemnation. If all or any part of a Lot (except the Common Open Space) is taken by eminent domain, the award shall be disbursed to the Owner of the Lot, subject to the rights of the Owner’s mortgagees. If the taking renders the Lot uninhabitable, the Owner shall be divested of any further interest in the Project, including Membership in the Association, and the interest of the remaining Owners shall be adjusted accordingly. If all or any part of the Common Open Space is taken by eminent domain, the proceeds of condemnation shall be used to restore or replace the portion of the Common Open Space affected by condemnation, if restoration or replacement is possible, and any remaining funds, after payment of any and all fees and expenses incurred by the Association relating to such condemnation, shall be distributed among the Owners in the same proportion as such Owners are assessed. The Association shall represent the Owners in any condemnation proceedings or in negotiations, settlements and agreements with the condemning authority for acquisition of the Common Open Space or part thereof.
