available, during normal business hours, to the Declarant, Eligible Mortgage

Association is authorized to undertake all such upkeep, maintenance, repair and
replacement and recover the cost thereof from any Person(s) responsible
therefor.

to the Hotel Operator as set forth in this Declaration, the Association shall

22
6.2 DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
6.2.1 During the Period of Declarant Control, the Declarant
shall have the right to appoint and remove the members of the Board of Directors
and the officers of the Association. Such members of the Board of Directors and
officers are not required to be Unit Owners.
6.2.2 Upon the termination of the Period of Declarant
Control, the Unit Owners shall elect the Board of Directors which must consist
of at least five (5) members, at least a majority of whom must be Unit Owners.
The Board of Directors elected by the Unit Owners shall then elect the officers
of the Association.
6.2.3 The Declarant may voluntarily surrender its right to
appoint and remove the members of the Board of Directors and the officers of the
Association before termination of the Period of Declarant Control, and in that
event the Declarant may require, for the duration of the Period of Declarant
Control, that specified actions of the Association or the Board of Directors, as
described in a recorded instrument executed by the Declarant, be approved by the
Declarant before they become effective.
6.3 RULES. The Board of Directors, from time to time and subject to
the provisions of this Declaration and the Condominium Act, may adopt, amend,
and repeal Rules. The Rules may, among other things, restrict and govern the use
of any area by any Guest, any Unit Owner, or by any family member or invitee of
such Unit Owner; provided, however, that the Rules may not unreasonably
discriminate among Unit Owners and shall not be inconsistent with the
Condominium Act, this Declaration, the ARTICLEs, Bylaws or any Hotel Operating
and Rental Pool Agreement, nor shall such Rules discriminate against the Hotel
Operator or unreasonably restrict the Hotel Operator from performing its duties
or exercising its rights under the Hotel Operating and Rental Pool Agreement. A
copy of the Rules as they may from time to time be adopted, amended or repealed,
shall be mailed or otherwise delivered to each Unit Owner and may be recorded.
6.4 COMPOSITION OF MEMBERS. Each Unit Owner shall be a Member of the
Association. The membership of the Association at all times shall consist
exclusively of all the Unit Owners. A Unit Owner (including Declarant) of a Unit
shall automatically, upon becoming the Unit Owner thereof, be a Member of the
Association and shall remain a Member of the Association until such time as such
Unit Owner's ownership ceases for any reason, at which time, such Unit Owner's
membership in the Association shall automatically cease.
6.5 PERSONAL LIABILITY. Neither Declarant nor any member of the
Board of Directors or of any committee of the Association, any officer of the
Association nor any manager or other employee of the Association shall be
personally liable to any Member, or to any other person or entity, including the
Association, for any damage, loss or prejudice suffered or claimed on account of
any act, omission, error or negligence of the Declarant, the Association, the
Board of Directors, the manager, any representative or employee of the
Association, or any committee, committee member or officer of the Association;
provided, however, the limitations set forth in this SECTION 6.5 shall not apply
23
to any person who has failed to act in good faith or has engaged in wilful or
intentional misconduct.
6.6 IMPLIED RIGHTS. The Association may exercise any right or
privilege given to the Association expressly by the Condominium Documents and
every other right or privilege reasonably to be implied from the existence of
any right or privilege given to the Association by the Condominium Documents or
reasonably necessary to effectuate any such right or privilege.
6.7 VOTING RIGHTS. Subject to SECTION 6.8 below, each Unit Owner of
a Unit, including Declarant, shall be entitled to cast one (1) vote for each
Unit owned by such Unit Owner, on any Association matter which is put to a vote
of the membership in accordance with this Declaration, the ARTICLEs and/or
Bylaws.
6.8 VOTING PROCEDURES. No change in the ownership of a Unit shall be
effective for voting purposes unless and until the Board of Directors is given
actual written notice of such change and is provided satisfactory proof thereof.
The vote for each such Unit must be cast as a unit, and fractional votes shall
not be allowed. In the event that a Unit is owned by more than one (1) Person
and such Unit Owners are unable to agree among themselves as to how their vote
or votes shall be cast, they shall lose their right to vote on the matter in
question. If any Member casts a vote representing a certain Unit, it will
thereafter be conclusively presumed for all purposes that such Unit Owner was
acting with the authority and consent of all other Unit Owners of the same Unit
unless objection thereto is made at the time the vote is cast. In the event more
than one (1) vote is cast by a Member for a particular Unit, none of the votes
shall be counted and all of the votes shall be deemed void.
6.9 TRANSFER OF MEMBERSHIP. The rights and obligations of any Member
other than the Declarant shall not be assigned, transferred, pledged, conveyed
or alienated in any way except upon transfer of ownership of a Unit Owner's
Unit, and then only to the transferee of ownership to the Unit. A transfer of
ownership to a Unit may be effected by deed, intestate succession, testamentary
disposition, foreclosure of a mortgage of record, or such other legal process as
now in effect or as may hereafter be established under or pursuant to the laws
of the State of Arizona. Any attempt to make a prohibited transfer shall be
void. Any transfer of ownership to a Unit shall operate to transfer the
membership appurtenant to said Unit to the new Unit Owner thereof. Each
Purchaser of a Unit shall notify the Association of its purchase within ten (10)
days after becoming the Unit Owner of a Unit.
6.10 SUSPENSION OF VOTING RIGHTS. If any Unit Owner fails to pay any
Assessments or other amounts due to the Association under the Condominium
Documents within fifteen (15) days after such payment is due or if any Unit
Owner violates any other provision of the Condominium Documents and such
violation is not cured within fifteen (15) days after the Association notifies
the Unit Owner of the violation, the Board of Directors shall have the right to
suspend such Unit Owner's right to vote until such time as all payments,
including interest and attorneys' fees, are brought current, and until any other
infractions or violations of the Condominium Documents are corrected.
24
6.11 CONVEYANCE OR ENCUMBRANCE OF COMMON ELEMENTS. The Common
Elements shall not be mortgaged, transferred, dedicated or encumbered without
the prior written consent or affirmative vote of Unit Owners representing at
least eighty percent (80%) of the votes of the Members. In addition, any
conveyance, encumbrance, judicial sale or other transfer (whether voluntary or
involuntary) of an individual interest in the Common Elements shall be void
unless the Unit to which that interest is allocated also is transferred.
ARTICLE 7
ASSESSMENTS
7.1 PREPARATION OF BUDGET.
7.1.1 At least thirty (30) days before the beginning of each
fiscal year of the Association commencing with the fiscal year in which the
first Unit is conveyed to a Purchaser, the Board of Directors shall adopt a
budget for the Association containing an estimate of the total amount of funds
which the Board of Directors believes will be required during the ensuing fiscal
year to pay all Common Expenses, excluding any Common Expenses which are
proposed to be paid by the Hotel Operator pursuant to the terms of the annual
operating budget prepared by the Hotel Operator for the ensuing year. The budget
shall separately reflect any Common Expenses to be assessed against less than
all of the Units pursuant to SUBSECTION 7.2.4 of this Declaration.
7.1.2 Within thirty (30) days after the adoption of a
budget, the Board of Directors shall send to each Unit Owner the budget or a
summary of the budget and a statement of the amount of the Common Expense
Assessment assessed against the Unit of the Unit Owner in accordance with
SECTION 7.2 of this Declaration. The failure or delay of the Board of Directors
to prepare or adopt a budget for any fiscal year shall not constitute a waiver
or release in any manner of a Unit Owner's obligation to pay his allocable share
of the Common Expenses as provided in SECTION 7.2 of this Declaration, and each
Unit Owner shall continue to pay the Common Expense Assessment against his Unit
as established for the previous fiscal year until notice of the Common Expense
Assessment for the new fiscal year has been established by the Board of
Directors.
7.1.3 The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to
adopt and amend budgets for the Association, and no ratification of any budget
or amended budget by the Unit Owners shall be required.
7.2 COMMON EXPENSE ASSESSMENT.
7.2.1 For each fiscal year of the Association commencing
with the fiscal year in which the first Unit is conveyed to a Purchaser, the
Common Expense Assessment for each Unit shall be determined by multiplying the
total estimated Common Expenses set forth in the budget adopted by the Board of
Directors (except for the Common Expenses which are to be assessed against less
than all of the Units pursuant to SUBSECTION 7.2.4) times the applicable
25
Percentage Interest as set forth on EXHIBIT "B" attached hereto (the "Common
Expense Share"). If the Board of Directors determines during any fiscal year
that funds budgeted or available for that fiscal year are or will become
inadequate to meet all Common Expenses for any reason, including, without
limitation, reduced income and expense reimbursement from the operation of the
hotel, or increased Common Expenses, nonpayment of Assessments by Members, or
nonpayment of hotel operating costs (including maintenance and repairs of the
Common Elements, Unit Furnishings, Hotel Furnishings and Units by the Hotel
Operator) the Board of Directors may increase and reallocate the Common Expense
Assessment for that fiscal year and the revised Common Expense Assessment for
each Unit shall commence on the date designated by the Board of Directors.
7.2.2 The Common Expense Assessments shall commence as to
all Units on the first day of the month following the conveyance of the first
Unit to a Purchaser. The first Common Expense Assessment shall be adjusted
according to the number of months remaining in the fiscal year of the
Association. The Board of Directors may require that the Common Expense
Assessments or be paid in installments. For the period from the date upon which
this Declaration is recorded through the first day of the month following the
conveyance of the first Unit to a Purchaser, the Declarant shall be responsible
for assuring that the actual Common Expenses accrued through such date are paid.
7.2.3 Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this
Declaration, all Common Expenses shall be assessed against all of the Units in
accordance with SUBSECTION 7.2.1 of this Declaration.
7.2.4 If any Common Expense is caused by the negligence or
other misconduct of any Unit Owner, or if any Unit Owner fails to pay when due
any amount owing to the Hotel Operator under the Hotel Operating and Rental Pool
Agreement (a "Rental Pool Delinquency"), the Association (i) shall assess any
such Common Expense exclusively against such Unit Owner to the extent not
covered by insurance; and (ii) may assess any such Rental Pool Delinquency
exclusively against such Unit Owner.
7.2.5 All Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees and
charges levied against a Unit shall be the personal obligation of the Unit Owner
of the Unit at the time the Assessments, monetary penalties or other fees and
charges became due. The personal obligation of a Unit Owner for Assessments,
monetary penalties and other fees and charges levied against his Unit shall not
pass to the Unit Owner's successors in title unless expressly assumed by them.
7.3 SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS. In addition to Common Expense Assessments,
the Association may levy, in any fiscal year of the Association, a special
assessment applicable to that fiscal year only for the purpose of defraying, in
whole or in part, the cost of any construction, reconstruction, repair or
replacement of a capital improvement of one or more Units and/or the Common
Elements, including fixtures and personal property related thereto, or for any
other lawful Association purpose, provided that any Special Assessment shall
have first been approved by Unit Owners representing two-thirds (2/3) of the
votes in the Association who are voting in person or by proxy at a meeting duly
called for such purpose. Unless otherwise specified by the Board of Directors,
26
Special Assessments shall be due thirty (30) days after they are levied by the
Association and notice of the Special Assessment is given to the Unit Owners.
7.4 EFFECT OF NONPAYMENT OF ASSESSMENTS; REMEDIES OF THE
ASSOCIATION.
7.4.1 Any Assessment, or any installment of an Assessment,
which is not paid within five (5) days after the Assessment first became due
shall be deemed delinquent and shall bear interest from the date of delinquency
at the rate of interest established from time to time by the Board of Directors.
7.4.2 All Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees and
charges imposed or levied against any Unit or Unit Owner shall be secured by the
Assessment Lien as provided for in the Condominium Act. The recording of this
Declaration constitutes record notice and perfection of the Assessment Lien, and
no further recordation of any claim of lien shall be required. Although not
required in order to perfect the Assessment Lien, the Association shall have the
right but not the obligation, to record a notice setting forth the amount of any
delinquent assessments, monetary penalties or other fees or charges imposed or
levied against a Unit or the Unit Owner which are secured by the Assessment
Lien.
7.4.3 The Association shall have the right, at its option,
to enforce collection of any delinquent Assessments, monetary penalties and all
other fees and charges owed to the Association in any manner allowed by law
including, but not limited to: (i) bringing an action at law against the Unit
Owner personally obligated to pay the delinquent amounts and such action may be
brought without waiving the Assessment Lien securing any such delinquent
amounts; or (ii) bringing an action to foreclose its Assessment Lien against the
Unit in the manner provided by law for the foreclosure of a realty mortgage. The
Association shall have the power to bid at any foreclosure sale and to purchase,
acquire, hold, lease, mortgage and convey any and all Units purchased at such
sale.
7.5 SUBORDINATION OF ASSESSMENT LIEN TO MORTGAGES. The Assessment
Lien shall be subordinate to the lien of any First Mortgage. Any First Mortgagee
or any other party acquiring title or coming into possession of a Unit through
foreclosure of a First Mortgage, purchase at a foreclosure sale or trustee sale,
or through any equivalent proceedings, such as, but not limited to, the taking
of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, shall acquire title free and clear of any
claims for unpaid Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees and charges
against the Unit which became payable prior to such sale or transfer. Any
delinquent Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees and charges which are
extinguished pursuant to this SECTION 7.5 may be reallocated and assessed to all
Units as at Common Expense. Any Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees
and charges against the Unit which accrue prior to such sale or transfer shall
remain the obligation of the defaulting Unit Owner.
7.6 EXEMPTION OF UNIT OWNER. No Unit Owner may exempt itself from
liability for payment of Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees and
charges levied pursuant to the Condominium Documents by waiver and nonuse of any
of the Common Elements or by the abandonment or non-use of its Unit.
27
7.7 CERTIFICATE OF PAYMENT. The Association on written request shall
issue or cause to be issued to a lienholder, Unit Owner or Person designated by
a Unit Owner, a statement setting forth the amount of unpaid Assessments against
the Unit. The statement shall be furnished within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of the request and the statement is binding on the Association, the
Board of Directors, and every Unit Owner. In addition, upon receipt of a written
notice of a pending sale that contains the name and address of the Purchaser,
the Association shall mail or deliver to a Purchaser within seven (7) days after
receipt of the notice a written statement setting forth the amount of the Common
Expense Assessment for the Unit and any unpaid Common Expense Assessment, fee or
charge currently due from the selling Unit Owner, together with such other
information as may be required under the Condominium Act. The Association may
charge the Unit Owner a reasonable fee in an amount established by the Board of
Directors for each such statement.
7.8 NO OFFSETS. All Assessments, monetary penalties and other fees
and charges shall be payable in accordance with the provisions of this
Declaration, and no offsets against such Assessments, monetary penalties and
other fees and charges shall be permitted for any reason, including, without
limitation, a claim that the Association is not properly exercising its duties
and powers as provided in the Condominium Documents or the Condominium Act or
that insufficient revenue is being generated by the Hotel Operator.
7.9 RESERVE FUND. To assist the Association in maintaining adequate
funds to pay any hotel operation expenses and to establish appropriate reserves
therefor, each Purchaser of a Unit from the Declarant shall pay to the
Association, immediately upon becoming the Unit Owner of the Unit, an operating
cash reserve fund payment equal to $250,000 multiplied times the Percentage
Interest attributable to the Unit as such amount is set forth on EXHIBIT "B" for
each Unit. Such amount shall not be considered as an advance payment of any
Assessments levied by the Association pursuant to this Declaration. The
Association shall make such reserve fund payment available to the Hotel Operator
following the first year's operation of the Hotel to apply against any operating
cash required to be funded by the Unit Owners pursuant to the term of the Hotel
Operating and Rental Pool Agreement.
7.10 SURPLUS FUNDS. Surplus funds of the Association remaining after
payment of or making provisions for Common Expenses and establishing any
reserves may in the discretion of the Board of Directors either be returned to
the Unit Owners pro rata in accordance with each Unit Owner's Common Expense
Liability or be credited on a pro rata basis to the Unit Owners to reduce each
Unit Owner's future Common Expense Assessments or may be added to any
contingency or other reserve funds maintained by the Association.
7.11 MONETARY PENALTIES. In accordance with the procedures set forth
in the Bylaws, the Board of Directors shall have the right to levy reasonable
monetary penalties against a Unit Owner for violations of the Condominium
Documents.
7.12 TRANSFER FEE. Each Purchaser of a Unit shall pay to the
Association immediately upon becoming the Owner of the Unit a transfer fee in
such amount as is established from time to time by the Board of Directors.
28
7.13 ADDITIONAL RESERVES. The Association may establish and
maintain, from Common Expense Assessments, additional reserves to provide for
the replacement and capital repairs of the Common Elements, Unit Furnishings,
Hotel Furnishings and other Improvements to the Condominium which the
Association is obligated to repair, maintain and replace. In determining whether
to establish such reserves and the amount of such reserves, the Board of
Directors may take into account the reserves provided for in SECTION 7.9 and any
other reserves established by the Hotel Operator pursuant to the Hotel Operating
and Rental Pool Agreement which are established for similar purposes. The
Association may make such additional reserves available to the Hotel Operator in
order to enable the Hotel Operator to comply with its obligations under the
Hotel Operating and Rental Pool Agreement to repair or replace Improvements,
Unit Furnishings and Hotel Furnishings.
7.14 HOTEL OPERATING REVENUES. Notwithstanding anything contained in
this ARTICLE 7 to the contrary, all or any portion of distributions otherwise
due and payable to a Unit Owner pursuant to the Hotel Operating and Rental Pool
Agreement may be collected by the Association from the Hotel Operator upon
demand and may be used by the Association to pay and offset against all or any
portion of the Assessments or other amounts due and payable by such Unit Owner
pursuant to this Declaration. The foregoing shall not, however, relieve any such
Unit Owner of its obligation to pay Assessments or any deficiencies resulting
after the application of revenues from the Hotel Operating and Rental Pool
Agreement.
7.15 UNIT TAXES. Each Unit Owner shall be responsible for all real
estate taxes attributable to its Unit and all income, sales, use, privilege,
bed, lodging and other taxes attributable to any revenue earned by such Unit
Owner in connection with participating in the rental pool arrangement or any
other income produced relative to its respective Unit. It is anticipated that
the Hotel Operator will file and remit to the appropriate governmental agencies
the sales, use, privilege, bed or lodging taxes applicable to the rental pool
arrangement.
7.16 UTILITIES. Utility usage shall be considered a Common Expense
and as such shall be governed by the provisions of SUBSECTION 7.1 and 7.2.

their respective last known addresses.

35

11.1 ENFORCEMENT. The Association, or any Unit Owner, shall have
the right to enforce, by any proceeding at law or in equity, all restrictions,
conditions, covenants, reservations, liens and charges now or hereafter imposed
by the provisions of the Condominium Documents. Failure by the Association or by
any Unit Owner to enforce any covenant or restriction contained in the
Condominium Documents shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so
thereafter.
11.2 SEVERABILITY. Invalidation of any one of these covenants or
restrictions by judgment or court order shall in no way affect any other
provisions which shall remain in full force and effect.
11.3 DURATION. The covenants and restrictions of this Declaration
shall continue in full force and effect and run with and bind the Condominium
until terminated in accordance with the provisions of SECTION 11.4.
11.4 TERMINATION OF CONDOMINIUM. The Condominium may be terminated
only in the manner provided for in the Condominium Act.
11.5 AMENDMENT.
11.5.1 Except in cases of amendments that may be executed by
a Declarant in the exercise of its Development Rights or under A.R.S.
ss.33-1220, by the Association under A.R.S. ss.ss.33-1206 or 33-1216(D), or by
certain Unit Owners under A.R.S. ss.ss.33-1218(B), 33-1222, 33-1223 or
33-1228(B), or in cases where a higher percentage is required by the Condominium
Act, the Declaration, including the Plat, may be amended only by a vote of the
Unit Owners to which at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the votes in the
Association are allocated.
11.5.2 An amendment to the Declaration shall not terminate
or decrease any unexpired Development Right, Special Declarant Right or Period
of Declarant Control unless the Declarant approves the amendment in writing.
11.5.3 During the Period of Declarant Control, the Declarant
shall have the right to amend the Declaration, including the Plat, to (i) comply
with the Condominium Act or any other applicable law if the amendment does not
adversely affect the rights of any Unit Owner, (ii) correct any error or
inconsistency in the Declaration if the amendment does not adversely affect the
rights of any Unit Owner, (iii) comply with the rules or guidelines in effect
from time to time of any governmental or quasi-governmental entity or federal
corporation guaranteeing or insuring mortgage loans or governing transactions
involving mortgage instruments, including without limitation, the VA, the FHA,
the FNMA or the FHLMC, or (iv) the rules or requirements of any federal, state
37
or local governmental entity or agency whose approval of the Condominium, the
Plat or the Condominium Documents is required by law or requested by Declarant.
11.5.4 To the extent that any First Mortgages insured by the
FHA or guaranteed by the VA are held on any of the Units at the time of
amendment, and to the extent that it is required by any regulations governing
FHA/VA mortgages, during the Period of Declarant Control, any amendment to the
Declaration or the Plat must be approved by the VA or the FHA.
11.5.5 Any amendment adopted by the Unit Owners pursuant to
SUBSECTION 11.5.1 of this Declaration shall be signed by the President or Vice
President of the Association and shall be recorded with the County Recorder of
each County in which any portion of the Condominium is located. Any such
amendment shall certify that the amendment has been approved as required by this
SUBSECTION 11.5.5. Any amendment made by the Declarant pursuant to SUBSECTION
11.5.3 of this Declaration or the Condominium Act shall be executed by the
Declarant and shall be recorded with the County Recorder of each County in which
any portion of the Condominium is located.
11.6 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. Each remedy provided herein is
cumulative and not exclusive.
11.7 NOTICES. All notices, demands, statements or other
communications required to be given to or served on a Unit Owner under this
Declaration shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given and
served if delivered personally or sent by United States mail, postage prepaid,
return receipt requested, addressed to the Unit Owner, at the address which the
Unit Owner shall designate in writing and file with the Association or, if no
such address is designated, at the address of the Unit of such Unit Owner. A
Unit Owner may change his address on file with the Association for receipt of
notices by delivering a written notice of change of address to the Association
pursuant to this SECTION 11.7. A notice given by mail, whether regular,
certified, or registered, shall be deemed to have been received by the person to
whom the notice was addressed on the earlier of the date the notice is actually
received or three days after the notice is mailed. If a Unit is owned by more
than one person, notice to one of the Unit Owners shall constitute notice to all
Unit Owners of the same Unit. Each Unit Owner shall file its correct mailing
address with the Association, and shall promptly notify the Association in
writing of any subsequent change of address.
11.8 BINDING EFFECT. By acceptance of a deed or by acquiring any
ownership interest in any portion of the Condominium, each Person, for himself,
his heirs, personal representatives, successors, transferees and assigns, binds
himself, his heirs, personal representatives, successors, transferees and
assigns, to all of the provisions, restrictions, covenants, conditions, rules,
and regulations now or hereafter imposed by the Condominium Documents and any
amendments thereof. In addition, each such Person by so doing thereby
acknowledges that the Condominium Documents set forth a general scheme for the
improvement and development of the real property covered thereby and hereby
evidences his intent that all the restrictions, conditions, covenants,
easements, rules and regulations contained in the Condominium Documents shall
run with the land and be binding on all subsequent and future Unit Owners,
grantees, purchasers, assignees, and transferees thereof. Furthermore, each such
38
person fully understands and acknowledges that the Condominium Documents shall
be mutually beneficial, prohibitive and enforceable by the various subsequent
and future Unit Owners. Declarant, its successors, assigns and grantees,
covenants and agrees that no Unit and the membership in the Association and the
other rights created by the Condominium Documents related to such Unit shall be
separated or separately conveyed, and such membership and other rights shall be
deemed to be conveyed or encumbered with the respective Unit even though the
description in the instrument of conveyance or encumbrance may refer only to the
Unit.
11.9 GENDER. The singular, wherever used in this Declaration, shall
be construed to mean the plural when applicable, and the necessary grammatical
changes required to make the provisions of this Declaration apply either to
corporations or individuals, or men or women, shall in all cases be assumed as
though in each case fully expressed.
11.10 TOPIC HEADINGS. The marginal or topical headings of the
SECTIONs contained in this Declaration are for convenience only and do not
define, limit or construe the contents of the SECTIONs or of this Declaration.
11.11 SURVIVAL OF LIABILITY. The termination of membership in the
Association shall not relieve or release any such former Unit Owner or Member
from any liability or obligation incurred under, or in any way connected with,
the Association during the period of such ownership or membership, or impair any
rights or remedies which the Association may have against such former Unit Owner
or Member arising out of, or in any way connected with, such ownership or
membership and the covenants and obligations incident thereto.
11.12 CONSTRUCTION. In the event of any discrepancies,
inconsistencies or conflicts between the provisions of this Declaration and the
ARTICLEs, Bylaws or the Association Rules, the provisions of this Declaration
shall prevail.
11.13 JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. In the case of joint ownership of
a Unit, the liabilities and obligations of each of the joint Unit Owners set
forth in, or imposed by, the Condominium Documents shall be joint and several.
11.14 GUESTS AND TENANTS. Each Unit Owner shall be responsible for
compliance by his agents, tenants, guests, invitees, licensees and their
respective servants, agents, and employees with the provisions of the
Condominium Documents. A Unit Owner's failure to insure compliance by such
Persons shall be grounds for the same action available to the Association or any
other Unit Owner by reason of such Unit Owner's own noncompliance.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Unit Owner shall be responsible for the acts
or omissions of any Guest who may occupy the Unit Owner's Unit.
11.15 ATTORNEYS' FEES. In the event the Declarant, the Association
or any Unit Owner employs an attorney or attorneys to enforce a lien or to
collect any amounts due from a Unit Owner or to enforce compliance with or
recover damages for any violation or noncompliance with the Condominium
39
Documents, the prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover
from the other party his reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in the action.
11.16 NUMBER OF DAYS. In computing the number of days for purposes
of any provision of the Condominium Documents, all days shall be counted
including Saturdays, Sundays and holidays; provided, however, that if the final
day of any time period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, then the next day
shall be deemed to be the next day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or holiday.
11.17 DECLARANT'S RIGHT TO USE SIMILAR NAME. The Association hereby
irrevocably consents to the use by any other nonprofit corporation which may be
formed or incorporated by Declarant of a corporate name which is the same or
deceptively similar to the name of the Association provided one or more words
are added to the name of such other corporation to make the name of the
Association distinguishable from the name of such other corporation. Within five
(5) days after being requested to do so by the Declarant, the Association shall
sign such letters, documents or other writings as may be required by the Arizona
Corporation Commission in order for any other nonprofit corporation formed or
incorporated by the Declarant to use a corporate name which is the same or
deceptively similar to the name of the Association.
11.18 NOTICE OF VIOLATION. The Association shall have the right to
record a written notice of a violation by any Unit Owner of any restriction or
provision of the Condominium Documents. The notice shall be executed and
acknowledged by an officer of the Association and shall contain substantially
the following information: (i) the name of the Unit Owner; (ii) the legal
description of the Unit against which the notice is being recorded; (iii) a
brief description of the nature of the violation; (iv) a statement that the
notice is being recorded by the Association pursuant to this Declaration; and
(v) a statement of the specific steps which must be taken by the Unit Owner to
cure the violation. Recordation of a Notice of Violation shall serve as a notice
to the Unit Owner and to any subsequent purchaser of the Unit that there is a
violation of the provisions of the Condominium Documents. If, after the
recordation of such notice, it is determined by the Association that the
violation referred to in the notice does not exist or that the actual violation
referred to in the notice has been cured, the Association shall record a notice
of compliance which shall state the legal description of the Unit against which
the Notice of Violation was recorded, the recording data of the Notice of
Violation, and shall state that the violation referred to in the notice of
violation has been cured, or if such be the case, that it did not exist.
11.19 NO ABSOLUTE LIABILITY. No provision of the Condominium
Documents shall be interpreted or construed as imposing on any Unit Owner
absolute liability for damage to the Common Elements or the Units. A Unit Owner
shall only be responsible for damage to the Common Elements or Units caused by
such Unit Owner's negligence or intentional acts.
