The land submitted to the Oregon Condominium Act by this Declaration is located in the City of Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, and is more particularly described in Exhibit A attached hereto. The property submitted hereunder includes the land so described, all Buildings, improvements and structures thereon, and all easements, rights and appurtenances located on, belonging to or used in connection with such land.

3.         NAME. The name by which the Condominium shall be known is "West Oaks Condominiums."

4.         DESCRIPTION OF STAGED DEVELOPMENT. The Declarant proposes to develop the Condominium in more than one stage, with the maximum number of square feet, maximum number of stages, and the additional Common Elements and election dates, as follows:

4.1       The maximum number of Residential Buildings shall be nine (9) and the maximum number of Garage Buildings shall be four (4). All Residential Buildings shall be two and one-half (2.5) stories and the Garage Building shall be one (1) story.

4.2       The maximum number of Residential Units to be included in the Condominium development is ninety-five (95) with a maximum total number of square feet of 85,937. The maximum number of Parking Units to be included in the Condominium development is thirty-eight (38) with a maximum total number of square feet of 7,796. All Units are subject to this Declaration (as supplemented).

 4.3       The maximum number of stages in the development, including the initial stage, is two (2). The first stage shall consist of five (5) Residential Buildings and two (2) Garage Buildings. The second stage shall consist of four (4) Residential Buildings and two (2) Garage Buildings.

4.4       Up to one hundred four (104) parking spaces will be provided as additional common elements, which may be assigned to the Residential Units as determined by the Association.

4.5       Additional general Common Elements to be annexed at each stage of development shall include land, landscaping, bike racks and the portion of the Condominium Buildings not included within a Unit or a Limited Common Element. Except as provided below, it is anticipated that additional Common Elements will not substantially increase the proportioned amount of the common expenses payable by the existing Unit Owners. The annexation will have an effect on the allocation of interest in the common elements and voting rights of the existing Unit Owners.

 4.6       In each of the stages, the Declarant reserves the right to construct Units of different floor plans with either larger or smaller floor areas than those in the first stage. However, the quality of construction and the exterior style of the Buildings in each subsequent stage will be compatible with those of the first stage. Limited Common Elements of such Units are expected to be substantially similar to those in the first stage.

4.7       The Declarant reserves the right to annex additional land to become part of the general Common Elements of the Condominium. Such land shall be owned and maintained in like manner to other general Common Elements. The proposed use of such additional land may be open space or for the purpose of complying with land use, zoning and building restrictions, including without limitation any setback or similar restrictions. Should any additional lands be annexed, there is not expected to be a substantial increase in the proportional amount of common expenses, including the monthly assessment for maintenance, repair and replacement.

 4.8     Declarant shall have until October 1, 2007, (the "Termination Date") to annex the additional stage described on the Plat. Provided however, the Declarant may seek an amendment to the Declaration providing for an extension of time to annex such additional property not to exceed two (2) years. Such annexation shall be accomplished by the recordation of a Supplemental Condominium Declaration, which shall set forth the number and type of Units, if any, and a description of the Common Elements and the Units' undivided interests therein. The Supplemental Condominium Declaration shall be accompanied by a Plat certifying annexed Units to be complete and depicting the Units and Common Elements being annexed to the Condominium, and shall follow the procedures set forth in the Oregon Condominium Act. All improvements being annexed in the subsequent stage shall be substantially complete at the time of its annexation and any construction liens which may be recorded in  conjunction with such construction shall not cover any Units constructed in the prior stage. Declarant shall pay all taxes or other assessment against the property to be annexed prior to such annexation. All assessments against annexed Units shall be fixed in the same manner as assessments are fixed against Units in the initial stage.

 

4.9       To the extent Units in any prior stage to those to be annexed have been sold and are subject to Unit Owner Mortgages insured or held by FNMA, HUD or VA, the Declarant shall obtain the prior written consent of such mortgagees to any annexation prior to recordation of any Supplemental Declaration. Such consent shall not be withheld if the stage to be annexed substantially conforms to the provisions of this Section 4. To obtain such prior written approval in conjunction with a Unit Owner Mortgage held by FNMA, Declarant shall provide FNMA with a copy of the preliminary title commitment and copies of all exceptions shown thereon which affect the property to be annexed or which will affect the previously existing stage(s) of the Condominium.

6. COMMON ELEMENTS.

 

6.1       General Common Elements. The general Common Elements of Stage 1 consist of the following, to the extent they exist on the property, and except as portions thereof are expressly designated in this Declaration as part of a Unit or Limited Common Element:

6.1.1    The streets and driveways into the development, land pathways, and grounds, , bicycle racks, outdoor parking areas and handicap parking areas;

6.1.2    The foundations, floor slabs, crawl spaces, columns, girders, beams, supports, bearing walls, perimeter walls, main walls, retaining walls and roofs;

6.2       Limited Common Elements. The dimensions, designation and locations of the Limited Common Elements are shown on the Plat. The Limited Common Elements shall consist of rear yard areas, and decks for the exclusive use of the Residential Unit to which they adjoin, as shown on the Plat.

6.3       Allocation of Undivided Interest in Common Elements. Each Unit Owner is entitled to an undivided percentage interest in the Common Elements, as shown on Exhibit B. The method used to establish the allocation consist of (i) an allocation of an 0.01 percent undivided interest to each of the Parking Units, and (ii) an allocation of the remaining undivided interest to the Residential Units determined by the ratio which the square feet of each Residential Unit bears to the total square feet of all Residential Units, as shown on the Plat The minimum allocation of undivided interest in the Common Elements of each Stage 1 Unit upon completion of development, if Declarant elected to proceed with both stages of development, is also shown on Exhibit B.

Each Unit's interest in the Common Elements shall be inseparable from the Unit and any conveyance, encumbrance, judicial sale, or other transfer, voluntary of involuntary, of an interest in either the Common Elements or a Unit shall be void unless both the Unit and the allocated interest in Common Elements are also transferred therewith.

 

6.4       Use of Common Elements. No person shall use the Common Elements or any part thereof in any matter contrary to or not in accordance with this Declaration, the Bylaws or such rules and regulations pertaining thereto, which from time to time may be promulgated by the Board of Directors or the Association.

Such use may be conditioned upon, among other things, the payment by the Unit Owner of such assessment as may be established for the purpose of defraying the costs thereof.

 

6.5       Maintenance, Repair, and Replacement. The Association shall at all times maintain the General Common Elements in a clean and attractive manner. Unit Owners shall at all times pay to maintain the Limited Common Elements in like manner. The Association will perform the maintenance on the Limited Common Elements and may specially assess the Unit Owner(s) to which such Limited Common Elements pertain. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Declaration, the costs of concierge service, maintenance, repair and replacement of the General Common Elements shall be a common expense, and the performance of such work shall be the responsibility of the Association. The costs of replacement, maintenance and repair of the Limited Common Elements shall be the responsibility of the Unit Owner(s) to which such Limited Common Elements pertain. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be construed so as to preclude the Association from delegating to persons, firms, or corporations of its choice, such duties as may be imposed on or by the Association. Except as specifically provided otherwise in this Declaration, each Unit Owner will be liable for the common expenses including, without limitation, the funding or replacement reserves in proportion to the percentage ownership of each Unit in the Common Elements, excepting for fire and casualty insurance (which shall be shared in proportion to the amount of coverage placed on each Unit).

 

7.         COMMON PROFITS AND COMMON EXPENSES; VOTING.

 

7.1 Allocation of Common Profits and Expenses. The common profits and common expenses shall be allocated among the Unit Owners according to the allocation of undivided interest of each Unit in the Common Elements; provided, however, that no such profit shall be distributed among the Unit Owners but shall be used solely for purposes of maintaining, repairing, and replacing the General Common Elements or other expenses of the Association. Assessments for Stage 1 shall commence upon the closing of sale of the first Unit in Stage 1. Assessments for future stages shall commence upon the date of recording of the Supplemental Declaration for each stage. The common expenses shall be assessed to the Unit Owners according to the allocation of undivided interest of each Unit in the Common Elements. Provided, however, that until such time as the Supplemental Declaration for the final stage of the condominium has been recorded, or Declarant determines that no additional stages will be annexed, Declarant is electing to subsidize a portion of such assessments to the extent that each Unit Owner's monthly assessment shall be equal to said Unit Owner's monthly assessment if all Declarant elected to proceed with all stages of development. Provided, however, that Unit Owners may be assessed additional amounts individually for common expenses incurred through such Unit Owner's fault or direction or as otherwise provided in the Bylaws. Remedies for failure to pay assessments are described in the Bylaws attached as C and incorporated herein by reference.

 

7.2 Allocation of Voting Rights. The Owner(s) of each sold Residential Unit shall be entitled to one (1) vote per Unit in the affairs of the Association; provided, however, that the Owner(s) of sold Residential Unit shall be entitled to only one (1) vote per Unit, irregardless of the number of Owners of record of a Unit. The Declarant shall be entitled to three (3) votes per Residential Unit it owns. The method of voting shall be specified in the Bylaws. Voting rights will be allocated in the same manner for any Units annexed to the condominiums in later stages.

There shall be valid easements for the maintenance of the encroaching Units and Common Elements so long as the encroachments shall exist, and except as otherwise provided in the Act, the rights and obligations of Owners shall not be altered in any way by the encroachment, nor shall the encroachment be construed to be encumbrances affecting the marketability of title to any Unit.

The Residential Units shall be occupied and used by the respective Owners only for residential purposes for the Owner, family, tenants and social guests and for no other purposes except as provided in the Bylaws.

registered agent, setting forth the particular defect which it believes exists in the maintenance, repair and replacement program. If the specified defects are not corrected within ninety (90) days subsequent to receipt of such notice, then the mortgagee, upon written notice to the registered agent that it is exercising its proxy rights, shall have the right to attend succeeding annual or special meetings of the Association and to cast a vote for each Unit of which it holds a mortgage on all business coming before such meeting. Such proxy rights shall continue until the defects listed on the notice are corrected.

 

11.3     Rights of Unit Owners Upon Failure to Maintain.

An addition or amendment to the Declaration shall not be considered material for purposes of this Section 13.5 if it is for the purpose of correcting technical errors or for clarification only.

13.6 Request for Approval of Eligible Mortgage Holders. Any eligible mortgage holder or other mortgagee who receives a written request to approve additions or amendments to the Declaration, Bylaws, or other action to be taken by the Board of Directors, Association, or Unit Owners, shall be deemed to have given such approval unless a negative response is delivered or posted to the requesting party within thirty (30) days after such request has been received, provided that the written request was delivered by certified mail with "return receipt requested."

 

13.7 Priority of Lien; Discharge of Lien Upon Foreclosure. The Association's lien for unpaid assessments shall be subordinate to any prior recorded first mortgage against a Unit. When any first mortgage of a Unit obtains title to a Unit as a result of foreclosure, or resorts to other remedies provided in the first mortgage or first trust deed, such first mortgagee shall not be liable for assessments against such Unit or its Owner which became due prior to the acquisition of title to such Unit by such first mortgagee. Such unpaid assessments shall remain a liability of the former Unit owner and/or may be collected from all Unit Owners equally as a special assessment only. Nothing in this section shall be construed to relieve any mortgagee from its obligations to pay assessments following the date it acquires title to such Unit.

 

13.8     Right to Receive Notice of Meetings. A holder of a first mortgage shall, upon written request to the Association, be entitled to receive notice of all meetings of the Association and shall be entitled to designate a representative to attend all such meetings.

13.9     Additional Approvals. Unless sixty-seven percent (67%) of the holders of first mortgages of individual Units have given their prior approval, the Association shall not:

13.9.1 Change the pro rata interest or obligations of any Unit for (1) purposes of levying assessments or charges, (2) allocating distribution of hazard insurance proceeds or condemnation awards, or (3) determining the pro rata share of ownership of each Unit in the Common Elements;

 

13.9.2  Partition or subdivide any Unit;

 

13.9.3  By act or omission, seek to abandon or terminate the Condominium status of the project except as provided by statutes in case of substantial loss to the Units and Common Elements of the Condominium project;

 

13.9.4 By act or omission, seek to abandon, partition, subdivide, encumber, sell, or transfer the Common Elements. The granting of easements by the Association or the Board of Directors for public utilities or for other similar or public purposes consistent with the intended use of the Common Elements by the Owner shall not be deemed a transfer within the meaning of this clause; or

 

13.9.5 Use hazard insurance proceeds arising from losses to any Condominium property (whether to Units or to Common Elements) for purposes other than the repair, replacement, or reconstruction of such improvements statute.

 

13.10 Right to Examine Books and Records. All mortgagees (including insurers and guarantors of mortgages) shall have the right to examine the books and records (including the Declaration, Bylaws, rules, regulations and financial statements) of the Association upon written request. Such books and records shall be available for duplication at reasonable times. A mortgagee shall be entitled to have an audited financial statement prepared at its own expense if such audited statement is not otherwise available. The Association, its Board of Directors and its officers shall cooperate to facilitate the necessary auditing and review process.

 

14. NOTICE TO FIRST MORTGAGEES OF DEFAULTS. Any first mortgagee, upon written request, will be entitled to written notification from the Association of any default in the performance by the Owner of the mortgaged Unit of any obligation under this Declaration, the rules and regulations or the Bylaws which is not cured within sixty (60) days.

Any amendment which changes the boundary of the property or a Unit shall be approved by all Unit Owners, and by mortgagees pursuant to Section 13.5 above. For as long as Declarant remains the Owner of one or more Residential Units, the Bylaws, the Rules and Regulations and this Declaration may not be modified, added, amended or repealed so as to eliminate, change, or impair an rights, privileges, easements, licenses or exemptions granted therein or herein to Declarant or its designee, or otherwise adversely affect Declarant or such designee, without Declarant's or such designee's prior written consent in each instance.

15.3 Recordation.

EXHIBIT "B"

 

The percentage interest in the Common Elements is allocated among the Units as follows: an 0.01 percent undivided interest is allocated to each of the Parking Units, and (ii) an allocation of the remaining undivided interests to the Residential Units determined by the ratio which the square feet of each Residential Unit bears to the total square feet of all Residential Units, as shown on the Plat.

 

For Stage 1, there are 46,721 total square feet of Residential Units. For Stage 1, there are 22 Parking Units, which will each be allocated a 0.01% undivided interest, for a total 0.22% undivided interest, with the remaining 99.78% undivided interest to be allocated to the Residential Units.

 

There will be a total of approximately 85,937 square feet of Residential Units when all the Units are complete. There will be a total of 38 Parking Units when the development is complete, which will each be allocated a 0.01% undivided interest, for a total 0.38% undivided interest, with the remaining 99.62% undivided interest to be allocated to the Residential Units.

 

For Stage 1, each Residential Unit's allocation is calculated by multiplying its percentage of total square feet (column #4) by the remaining 99.78% undivided interest. When both stages are complete, each Stage 1 Residential Unit's allocation is calculated by multiplying its percentage of total square feet (column #5) by the remaining 99.62% undivided interest.
