in pm1, the cost of any construction, reconstruction, repair or replacement of a capital
improvement upon the Common Area, including fixtures and personal property related
thereto, on the Properties, provided that any such assessment shall have the assent of two-
thirds (2/3) of the votes of each Class of voting members who are voting in person or by
proxy at a meeting duly called for this purpose and, during the first five (5) years from
the date hereof, the same shall be approved by the Developer. .

purpose of taking any action authorized under Section 3 and 4 hereof shall be sent to all
members not less than thirty (30) days nor more than sixty (60) days in advance of the

Section 6. Uniforn1 Rate of Assessment. Both special assessments for capital
improvements, and annual assessments, shall be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots and

uni fOllnity shall not prevent special assessments against any particular lot which are
established pursuant to the tern1S of this Declaration.
Section 7. Developer's Assessment. The Developer obligates itself to pay any
operating expenses incurred by the association that exceed the assessments receivable
from other members and other income of the association, as long as it is in control of the

operating expenses and assessments related to any lots owned by it until such time as
control of the association is turned over to the individual homeowners. That all lots in
II
Moss Cove shall pay a uniform assessment except for developer owned lots while the developer
controls the Homeowners Association. Notwithstanding the foregoing requirement of uniformity, or
any other provision of this Declaration, or the Association's Articles oflncorporation or By-Laws,
to the contrary, the annual assessment against any Lot in which developer owns any interest shall, as
long as control has not been turned over to the individual homeowner shall be as stated above. Upon
transfer of title of a Developer-owner Lot, such Lot shall be assessed in the amount established
against lots owned by the Class "A" member of the Association, prorated as of, and commencing
whit, the month following the date of transfer of title, notwithstanding the foregoing, those lots from
which Developer derives any rental income, or holds an interest as mortgagees or contract seller, shall
be assessed at the same amount as is herein above established for lots owned by class "A" members
of the Association, prorated as of, and commencing with, the month following the execution of the
rental agreement or mortgage, or the contract purchasers's entry into possession, as the case may be.
Section 8. Date of Commencement of Annual Assessments. The annual assessments provided
or herein shall commence as to all Lots within that portion of the Properties described in the plat of
Moss Cove as recorded in Plat Book 54, page 85 of the Public Records of Seminole County, Florida
as common area attached hereto on the first day of the month following the recording of the
conveyance of the Association by Developer of the Common Area described in the plat attached
hereto. The annual assessments within any addition to the properties created by annexation, as
b~reinafter provided, shall commence as to all Lots included within each such annexation on the first
day of the month following the conveyance of the Common Area included within that annexation to
the Association. The first annual assessment against any Lot shall be prorated according to the
number of months then remaining in the calendar year. Both the Board of Directors of the
Association, which shall fix the amount of the annual assessment against each Lot at least thirty (30)
days in advance of each annual assessment period. The association shall, upon demand, and for a
reasonable charge, furnish to any interested party a certificate signed by an officer of the Association
setting forth whether the assessments against a specific lot have been paid and, if not, the amount of
the delinquency thereof. The Board of Directors of the association shall establish the due date of all
assessments contemplated by this Declaration.
Section 9. Lien for Assessment. All sums assessed to any Lot pursuant to this Article, together
with interest and all costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorney's fees, shall be
secured by a lien on such Lot in favor of the Association. Such lien shall be superior to all other liens
and encumbrances on such lot, except only for:
(a) Liens of general and special taxes; and
(b) A lien for all sums unpaid on a first Mortgage, or on any Mortgage to Developer, duly
recorded, including all unpaid obligatory advances to be made pursuant to such
mortgage and all amounts advanced pursuant to such
12
Mortgage and secured by the lien thereof in accordance with the tenns of such
instrument; and
(c) Construction liens filed pnor to the making of such
assessments.
Except for said liens of general and special taxes, liens for all sums secured by a
first Mortgage, and construction liens as more particularly defined in sub-
paragraphs (a) through (c) hereof, all other lienors acquiring liens on any Lot after
the recordation of this Declaration in the Public Records of Seminole County,
Florida, shall be deemed to consent that such liens shall be inferior to liens for
assessments, as provided herein, whether or not such consent is specifically set
forth in the instruments creating such liens. The recordation of this Declaration in
the Public Records of Seminole County, Florida, shall constitute constructive
notice to all subsequent purchasers and creditors, or either, of the existence of the
lien hereby created in favor of the Association and the priority thereof.
Section 10. Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments: Remedies of the
Association. Any assessment not paid within thirty (30) days after the, due date
shall bear interest from the due date at the rate of six perc~nt (6%) per annum.
The Association may bring an action at law against the Owner personally
obligated to pay the same, or foreclose the lien against the property. No Owner
may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments provided for herein
by non-use of the Common Area or abandonment of his Lot. A suit to recover a
money judgment for unpaid assessments hereunder shall be maintainable without
foreclosing or waiving the lien securing the same.
Section 11. Foreclosure. The lien for sums assessed pursuant to this
Declaration may be enforced by judicial foreclosure by the Association in the
same manner in which mortgages on real property may be foreclosed in Florida.
In any such foreclosure, the Owner shall be required to pay all costs and expenses
of foreclosure, including reasonable attorney's fees. All such costs and expenses
shall be secured by the lien being foreclosed. The Owner shall also be required to
pay to the Association any assessments against the Lot which shall become due
during the period of foreclosure, and the same shall be secured by the lien
foreclosed and accounted for as of the date the Owner's title is divested by
foreclosure. The Association shall have the right and power to bid at the
foreclosure or other legal sale to acquire the Lot foreclosed, and thereafter to hold,
convey, lease, rent, encumber, use and otherwise deal with the same as the Owner
thereof for the purposes of resale only. In the event the foreclosure sale results in
a deficiency, the Court ordering the same may, in its discretion, enter a personal
judgment against the Owner thereof for such deficiency, in the same manner as is
provided for foreclosure of Mortgages in the State of Florida.
Section 12. Homesteads. By acceptance of a Deed thereto, the Owner of
each Lot shall be deemed to acknowledge conclusively that the obligations
13
evidenced by the assessments provided for in this Declaration are for the
improving and maintenance of any homestead maintained by such Owner on such
Owner's Lot.
Section 13. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The lien of the
assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first
mortgage. Sale or transfer of any Lot shall not affect the assessment lien.
However, the sale or transfer of any lot pursuant to foreclosure of any such first
mortgage, or any proceeding in lieu thereof, shall extinguish the lien of such
assessments as to payments which became due prior to such sale or transfer. No
sale or transfer shall relieve such Lot from liability for assessments thereafter
becoming due or from the lien thereof. The Association shall, upon written
request, report to any encumbrancer of a Lot any unpaid assessments remaining
unpaid for a period longer than thirty (30) days after the same shall have become
due and shall give such encumbrancer a period of thirty (30) days in which to cure
such delinquency before instituting foreclosure proceedings against the Lot;
provided however, that such encumbrancer first shall have furnished to the
Association written notice of the existence of the encumbrance, which notice shall
designate the lot encumbered by a proper legal description and shall ,state the
address to which notice' pursuant to this section shall be gi ven to the
encumbrancer. Any encumbrancer holding a lien on a Lot m'ay pay, but shall not
be required to pay, any amounts secured by the lien created by this Section; and
upon such payment, such encumbrancer shall be subrogated to all rights of the
Association with respect to such lien, including priority.
