any of said Lots by deed, mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, Declarant hereby
covenants and agrees with said Prospective Purchasers that each of the Lots as shown on the
Recorded Plat shall be held, sold and conveyed subject to the restrictive and protective
covenants, conditions and easements hereinafter set forth (hereinafter referred to as the
"Restrictions") and said Restrictions shall become a part of each instrument conveying title to

2. PROPERTY CONTROL.
a. Before any structure or improvement whatsoever (including, but
not limited to, dwellings, fences, mailboxes, paperboxes, patios, walls, storage buildings,
swimming pools, outbuildings, garages, carports or gazebos) may be erected upon any Lot, the
plans and specifications for such structure or improvement; the proposed location and orientation
in relation to streets or other Lots; and the construction materials, the covering material, style and
slope of the roofs and exterior color schemes shall have been approved in writing by the
Committee. Any garage, carport, gazebo or other outbuilding erected upon a Lot shall have the
same siding material and siding color and shall have the same roof material and roof color as the
dwelling located upon the Lot. After initial construction of a structure, any exterior changes or
additions to the structure and any exterior remodeling, reconstruction, alteration or building
addition on a Lot also shall require the prior written approval of the Committee.
b. Before construction of any structure commences, there shall be
submitted to the Committee two (2) complete sets of the final plans and specifications and details
for the proposed structure, the erection or alteration of which is desired. Such plans,
specifications and details shall include plot plans showing the location on the Lot of all structures
proposed to be constructed or altered, together with the proposed construction materials, color
schemes for exterior walls and roofs and proposed landscape planting.
C. The Committee shall approve or disapprove plans, specifications
and details within thirty (30) days from the receipt thereof. One (1) set of said plans,
specifications and details, with the approval or disapproval of the Committee endorsed thereon,
shall be returned to the person submitting them and the other copy thereof shall be retained by
the Committee for its permanent files. Any disapproval shall state specific reasons for the
disapproval. In the event the plans, specifications and details are not disapproved within
thirty (30) days after their receipt by the Committee, they shall be deemed approved.
d. The Committee shall have the right to disapprove any plans,
specification or details submitted to it in the event they are not in accordance with the provisions
of these Restrictions; if the design, height, construction materials, exterior finish or color scheme
of the proposed structure is not in harmony with the general surroundings of such Lot or with the
adjacent structures; if the plans, specifications and details submitted are incomplete; or if the
Committee deems the plans, specifications or details, or any part thereof, to be contrary to the
interests, welfare or rights of the owner of any Lot. All decisions of the Committee shall be
final.
e. Once the plans, specifications and details have been approved by
the Committee, construction shall adhere to those plans, specifications and details in all material
respects. If a material deviation is proposed, it shall be approved in writing by the Committee
before construction proceeds.
Neither the Committee nor any agent thereof shall be responsible
or liable for any defects in any plans, specifications or details submitted, revised or approved; for
any structural or other defects in any work done according to such plans, specifications or
details; for refusing to approve plans for any reason whatsoever; for the failure of any plans
submitted to comply with these Restrictions; for the failure of any approved or unapproved
construction to conform to the provisions of the plans, specifications or details or these
Restrictions; for failure to enforce these Restrictions; or for the failure to enjoin construction
which has either not been approved by the Committee or which is not being performed in
accordance with plans, specifications and details which have been approved by the Committee.
Approval by the Committee shall not relieve a Lot owner from obtaining any required
governmental approval of any proposed action or from conforming with the provisions of these
Restrictions.
3. USE, SIZE, CONSTRUCTION AND PLACEMENT OF RESIDENCES
AND STRUCTURES.
a. Only one (1) single-family residential dwelling designed for use as,
and used as, a single-family residential dwelling, one (1) outbuilding and other appurtenant
structures which are not outbuildings, all of which comply with these Restrictions and all of
which shall have been approved by the Committee may be constructed, erected, placed or
maintained on any Lot. Each Lot shall be used for single-family residential purposes only and
no more than one (1) single family (and its attendant butler, maid or nanny) may reside on a Lot
at any one time. No improvement of any kind, other than a single-family residential dwelling
and other improvements which are not prohibited herein may be constructed, erected, placed or
maintained on any Lot. Except as hereinafter provided, no Lot shall be used for an office,
business, or other operation to which persons physically visit to obtain goods or services; no
goods shall be stored on a Lot for the purpose of delivery to persons not residing on that Lot; and
no goods shall be delivered to a Lot by delivery trucks or otherwise if the goods are intended to
be delivered thereafter to persons not residing on that Lot. The foregoing notwithstanding, the
following are not prohibited by this Paragraph 3(a): (i) the storage by an occupant living in the
residential dwelling on a Lot of goods intended to be delivered as gifts to a family member or
personal acquaintance of said occupant; or, (ii) the maintenance by Declarant of a model home
and/or sales office on any Lot which Declarant owns or leases as permitted by this
Paragraph 3(a). No lot may be used for a daycare center, after -school care center, nursery or
similar use. However, it shall not be a violation of these Restrictions for an occupant residing on
a Lot to hire a sitter or other caregiver to come upon that Lot to care for members of said
occupant's family who also reside on that Lot. It is provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing restrictions, Declarant, or a party designated by Declarant in writing, may operate or
allow the operation of a sales office on a Lot so long as Declarant or such designated party is
offering for sale either Lots or previously unoccupied houses located in the Subdivision, located
on any other property owned by Declarant or such designated party and located in the same area
as the Subdivision or located on the property described by the deed recorded in Book 1642,
Page 5.
b. Each dwelling in the Subdivision shall contain no less than
1,800 square feet of heated floor area and no less than 1,000 square feet of heated floor area on
the first floor. Unless they are the one (1) permitted outbuilding, garages shall be attached to the
dwelling in the manner provided in Paragraph 4 hereof. Any permitted outbuilding erected upon
a Lot shall have the same siding material and siding color and shall have the same roof material
and roof color as the dwelling located upon the Lot. All roofs on the dwelling and on any
permitted outbuilding shall have a least a 5/12 roof pitch.
C. No dwelling constructed on a Lot shall exceed two and one-
half (21/2) stories in height. The Committee shall have the authority to establish regulations
pertaining to the height and size requirements of all other types of structures.
d. No building or above ground structure, except approved fences,
mailboxes and paper boxes, shall be located nearer to any Lot boundary line than the building
setback lines shown on the Recorded Plat. The establishment of standard inflexible building
setback lines for the location of buildings tends to force construction of structures both directly
behind and directly to the side of other structures with detrimental effects on privacy,
preservation of important trees and wetland areas. Therefore, no specific setback lines are
established by these Restrictions except as set forth above. In order to insure, however, that the
location of structures will be staggered where practical and appropriate; that the maximum
amount of view and attractiveness will be available to each structure; that the structures will be
located with regard to the topography of each individual Lot; and that the location will take into
consideration the location of iarge trees, iot elevations, wetland areas, Stormwater Management
Facilities (as hereinafter defined), and similar considerations, the Committee shall have, and
hereby is granted, the right to control absolutely and to decide in its sole discretion the precise
site and location of any dwelling or other structure upon any Lot; provided, however, that such
location shall be determined only after reasonable opportunity is afforded the owner of the Lot to
recommend a specific site, but such location shall be within the minimum setback lines shown on
the Recorded Map. The exact location of the dwelling and any permitted outbuildings shall be
shown on the site plan for each Lot and approved by the Committee. The provisions of these
Restrictions supersede the notes on the Recorded Plat.
e. Except as hereinafter provided in this Paragraph 3(e), any fence
located on a Lot shall be constructed behind the front face of the dwelling located on the Lot and
shall be no greater than six (6) feet in height. It is provided, however, that a privacy fence
enclosing an area not larger than one hundred sixty (160) square feetmay be constructed at a
height greater than six (6) feet but not greater than eight (8) feet. Any such permitted privacy
fence shall be located behind the rear face of the dwelling located on the Lot. All fences shall be
constructed of pressure treated wood; decay and insect resistant wood such as cedar, juniper or
redwood, or of vinyl. No chain link fences shall be constructed on any Lot. All swimming pools
shall be enclosed by an approved privacy fence meeting the criteria set forth above.
f. No above -ground structure, except approved fences, mailboxes, paper
boxes, and paving may be constructed or placed on any Lot in the Subdivision except within the
building lines stated in this Paragraph 3. All mailboxes constructed within the Subdivision shall
be constructed and located according to mailbox plans and specifications from time -to -time
adopted by the Committee. The intention of these Restrictions is that all mailboxes shall be
identical.
g. The exterior of any dwelling or other permitted outbuilding located
on a Lot shall be either brick, stucco, vinyl, wood, masonry fibrous cement board such as
"Hardie Plank," or split -face block, or some combination of the aforesaid sidings. Any wood
siding shall be either juniper, cedar or cypress. No exterior surface shall consist of masonite,
asbestos, metal sidings or exposed concrete blocks (except masonry fibrous cement board such
as "Hardie Plank" or split face block). All sidings shall be cleaned as often as is necessary to
prevent the accumulation of mildew on the siding.
h. The roofing material of any dwelling or other permitted
outbuilding located on a Lot shall be either "architectural style" or "three dimensional asphalt"
shingles.
i. At the time a dwelling is constructed on a Lot, there also shall be
constructed by the installation of Centipede, Saint Augustine or Zoysia grass sod, a contiguous
lawn from the front face of the dwelling located on said Lot to the pavement of the road right of
way in front of said Lot and from side lot line to side lot line. That lawn shall comply with the
North Carolina State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW8041030 for the Subdivision and
any amendments, additions or replacements thereof. With respect to any Lot hereinafter annexed
into the Subdivision, there also shall be constructed a lawn as provided above (hereinafter all
North Carolina Stormwater Management Permits applicable to the Lots and any Lots hereinafter
annexed into the Subdivision, and any amendments, additions or replacements thereof are
collectively referred to as the "Permit"). Thereafter, such lawn, including any portion thereof
upon which is located any Stormwater Management Facilities (hereinafter defined), shall be
maintained by the owner of the Lot in a mowed condition, and the owner of said Lot shall not
damage or allow any damage to occur to any such Stormwater Management Facilities. Until
such time as ground cover is established on a Lot, any stormwater diversion swale located on
said Lot shall not be graded or otherwise modified except in compliance with the Permit. The
Permit requires, at a minimum, the replacement of the stormwater diversion swale with a silt
fence until ground cover is established on the entire Lot. After ground cover is established on a
Lot, the stormwater diversion swale located on a Lot may be graded; provided, however, that
such grading is performed in compliance with the Permit. The owner of the Lot upon which
such grading is performed shall be responsible for all maintenance of the swale and for
compliance with all requirements of the Permit.
j. The Subdivision is subject to North Carolina Sedimentation and
Erosion Control Permits. The owner of any Lot or annexed Lot subject to such North Carolina
Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permits shall be responsible for compliance with all
requirements of said permits.

Lots shall be members of the Corporation.
C. Each owner of each Lot within the Subdivision shall be a member
of the Corporation. The Declarant, by this Declaration, and the owners of each individual Lot,
by their acceptance of a deed thereto, covenant and agree with respect to the Corporation:

acts necessary to remain in good and current standing as a member of the Corporation; and
(B) That any unpaid assessment, whether general or special, levied by the Corporation in
accordance with these Restrictions, the Articles of Incorporation (herein called the "Articles") or
the Bylaws of the Corporation (herein called the "Bylaws")shall be a lien upon the Lot upon
which such assessment was levied and also shall be the personal obligation of the person who
was the owner of the Lot at the time the assessment fell due.
d. Each membership in the Corporation shall relate to and have a
unity of interest with an individual Lot which may not be separated from the ownership of said
Lot. The books and all supporting documentation, the Declaration, the Articles, the Bylaws, and

their lenders' agents during normal business hours at the principal office of the Corporation.
e. The Corporation shall have one class of members. The members
shall be all owners of a Lot, and they shall be entitled to one vote for each Lot owned; provided,
however, when more than one person holds an interest in any Lot, all such persons shall be
members; however, the vote for such Lot shall be exercised as they, among themselves,
detcrmine, but in no event shall more than one vote or any fraction of a vote be cast with respect
to any Lot.
f. The Declarant shall, at its sole cost and expense, initially construct
all Stormwater Management Facilities required to be located upon the Lots or upon any property

Trailwood, Section III, the date after which at least fifty percent (50%) of the Lots are conveyed
to owners other than Declarant. With respect to property hereinafter annexed into the
Subdivision by the Declarant, the Permit may be transferred by Declarant after the date upon
which at least fifty percent (50%) of the annexed Lots are conveyed to owners other than
Declarant. Prior to any such transfer, the Stormwater Management Facilities for the respective
Subdivision section, including any property annexed by Declarant into the Subdivision, shall be
certified, either by state inspection or by a licensed engineer, as being in compliance with the
applicable Permit prior to such assignment or transfer. The Corporation shall indemnify and

reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Declarant in the defense of any action against Declarant
as the holder of the Permit occurring after Declarant tenders transfer of the Permit to the
Corporation following the approval of such transfer by the North Carolina Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and the certification of compliance as set forth above.
Further, Declarant may bring an action for specific performance of the obligations of the
Corporation pursuant to this paragraph. From and after the transfer of the Permit from the
Declarant following the approval of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural

each owner of any Lot by acceptance of a deed for the same (whether or not it shall be so
expressed in such deed) is deemed to covenant and agree, to pay to the Corporation annual
general assessments or charges as hereinafter provided. The annual general assessments;
together with interest, costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be a charge and lien on the land
and, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 8(o) hereof, shall be a continuing lien upon the
property against which each such assessment is made. Furthermore, each such assessment,
together with interest, costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall also be the personal obligation
of the person who was the owner of the Lot at the time when the assessment fell due. The
personal obligation for delinquent assessments shall not pass to a successor in title to a Lot
unless expressly assumed by them, but, subject to the provisions of this Declaration, delinquent
assessments shall continue to be a lien upon such Lot.
(i) Until January 1, 2006, the annual general assessment shall
be Fifty Dollars ($50.00) per Lot.
(ii) From and after January 1, 2006, the annual general
assessment may be increased upon the vote of a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Corporation by no more than ten percent (10%) of the annual general assessment for the
preceding year.
(iii) Any increase of the annual general assessment exceeding
ten percent (10%) of the annual general assessment for the preceding year must be approved by
the owners of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Lots who are voting in person or by proxy at a
meeting called for this purpose.
(iv) Once the annual general assessment has been set, notice of
the annual general assessment shall be given to all Lot owners. It is provided, however, that no
owner is relieved from the obligation to pay the assessment because of failure to give such
notice. After the initial notice of the assessment, no bills for such assessment will be forwarded
to any owner but such assessment thereafter shall become due and payable as provided by the
Board of Directors,
(v) As provided in the Bylaws, and subject to the restrictions
and limitations provided herein, the Board of Directors shall establish an Annual Budget in
advance for each fiscal year. Such budget shall project all expenses for the forthcoming fiscal
year which may be required for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the
Stormwater Management Facilities, the North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control
Permits, the Entrance Sign and the Corporation, including a reasonable allowance for
contingencies and reserves. The budget shall take into account any projected or anticipated
income. Upon adoption of such Annual Budget by the Board of Directors, copies of the Budget
shall be delivered to each owner together with a statement of the assessment for each Lot as
provided herein, based upon such budget; however, the non -delivery of a copy of said Budget
shall not affect the liability of any owner for such assessment. The Annual Budget shall be
divided by the number of Lots subject to the annual general assessments at the time of the annual
meeting of the members and the quotient shall be the annual general assessment per Lot for the
succeeding fiscal year.
(vi) The Board of Directors, in establishing the Annual Budget
for operation, management and maintenance of the Stormwater Management Facilities, the
enforcement of these Restrictions relating to all applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and
Erosion Control Permits, the Corporation and the Entrance Sign, shall designate therein a sum to
be collected and maintained as a reserve fund for the maintenance, repair and replacement of the
Stormwater Management Facilities, the enforcement of the North Carolina Sedimentation and
Erosion Control Permits and the Entrance Sign.
(vii) All monies collected by the Corporation shall be treated as
the separate property of the Corporation and such monies may be applied by the Corporation to
the payment of any expense of operating and managing the Corporation or the proper
undertaking of all acts and duties imposed upon it by virtue of this Declaration, the Articles and
the Bylaws. As monies for any assessment are paid into the Corporation by any owner, the same
may be commingled with monies paid to the Corporation by the other owners. Although all
funds and any increments thereto or profits derived therefrom shall be held for the benefit of the
members of the Corporation, no member of the Corporation shall have the right to assign,
hypothecate, pledge or in any manner transfer said owner's membership interest therein, except
as an appurtenance of said owner's Lot. When the owner of a Lot shall cease to be a member of
the Corporation by reason of said owner's divestment of ownership of such Lot, by whatever
means, the Corporation shall not be required to account to such owner for any share of the fund
or assets of the Corporation, including any monies which said owner may have paid to the
Corporation, as all monies which any owner has paid to the Corporation shall be and constitute
an asset of the Corporation which may be used in the operation and management of the
Corporation.
i. Written notice of any meeting called for the purpose of taking any
action requiring a meeting shall be sent to all members not less than thirty (30) days, or more
than sixty (60) days in advance of the meeting. At the first such meeting called, the presence of
members or of proxies entitled to cast thirty percent (30%) of the votes of all members shall
constitute a quorum. If the required quorum is not present, another meeting may be called
subject to the same notice requirement, and the required quorum at the subsequent meeting shall
be one-half ('/z) of the required quorum at the preceding meeting. No such subsequent meeting
shall be held more than sixty (60) days following the preceding meeting.
j. Annual general assessments and special assessments shall, except
as otherwise provided herein, be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots.
k. The annual general assessments provided for herein shall
commence as to all Lots on the first day following the recordation of this Declaration in the
office of the Register of Deeds of Onslow County and shall be prorated on a calendar year basis
through the date of such recordation. The annual general assessments shall be assessed for each
calendar year thereafter and shall be payable annually, with the due date for such payments being
as established by the Board of Directors. The payment of any assessment or installment thereof
shall be in default if such assessment or installment is not paid to the Corporation within ten (10)
days of the due date for such payment. When in default, the delinquent assessment shall bear
interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum until such delinquent assessment and all
interest due thereon has been paid in full.
1. The annual general assessment levied by the Corporation shall be
used exclusively to oversee, inspect, maintain and repair the Stormwater Management Facilities;
to enforce the provisions of these Restrictions relating to the Stormwater Management Facilities,
the Permit, the applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permits; to pay the
expenses of the Committee from and after the time, if ever, Declarant transfers or releases the
right to appoint the Committee to the Corporation; and to pay the expenses of the Corporation.
The Corporation's sole function is to oversee, inspect, maintain and repair the Stormwater
Management Facilities; to enforce the provisions of these Restrictions relating to the Stormwater
Management Facilities, the Permit, the applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion
Control Permits, and the Entrance Sign; and the right to appoint the Committee from and after
the time, if ever, the right to appoint the Committee has been transferred or released by Declarant
to the Corporation. The powers of the Corporation may not be expanded beyond those purposes.
Nothing herein relieves the owner of a Lot from said owner's obligation to maintain the areas
upon said owner's Lot upon which the Stormwater Management Facilities are located as
provided herein and not to damage or allow damage to occur to said Stormwater Management
Facilities and to comply with the provisions of all applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and
Erosion Control Permits.
m. T he Corporation shall, upon demand, and for a reasonable charge,
furnish a certificate signed by an officer of the Corporation setting forth whether the assessments
on a specified Lot have been paid. A properly executed certificate of the Corporation as to the
status of assessments on a Lot is binding upon the Corporation as of the date of its issuance.
n. General special assessments and specific special assessments may
be levied against Lots for such reasons as are provided in these Restrictions, the Articles or the
Bylaws, and on such terms as provided by the directors and the members. Upon a two-
thirds (2/3) vote of the Directors and a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the owners of Lots who are voting
in person or by proxy at a meeting duly called for this purpose, the Corporation may levy and
impose special assessments. The purposes for which special assessments may be levied are
limited to providing funds to pay for the oversight, inspection, maintenance and repair of the
Stormwater Management Facilities, to enforce the provisions of these Restrictions relating to the
Stormwater Management Facilities, the Permit and all applicable North Carolina Sedimentation
and Erosion Control Permits which exceed the general assessment funds then on hand to pay
same and to provide a contingency fund for capital improvements and extraordinary expenses.
General special assessments shall be levied at a uniform rate for all Lots. Specific special
assessments may be assessed against the owner of a Lot after written notice has been given by
the Corporation to the owner of said Lot at the address of the owner appearing upon the records
of the Corporation by United States mail, postage prepaid, that the Stormwater Management
Facilities located on said Lot have been damaged by the act or negligent failure to act of said
owner or that said owner has failed to comply with all applicable North Carolina Sedimentation
and Erosion Control Permits and that, as a result, such Stormwater Management Facilities are in
need of repair or replacement in order to comply with the Pemut or actions must be taken in
order to comply with the applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permits
and the owner of said Lot has not taken the necessary action to bring the Stormwater
Management Facilities located on said owner's Lot into compliance with the Permit or to comply
with the provisions of all applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permits
within thirty (30) days after the mailing of said notice. If said owner commences the necessary
action to repair or replace the Stormwater Management Facilities located on said owner's Lot and
to bring the Stormwater Management Facilities into compliance with the Permit or to bring the
Lot into compliance with the applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control
Permits within the thirty (30) day period set forth above, the imposition of a specific special
assessment shall be deferred by the Corporation for the period during which said owner
diligently pursues to completion the repair or replacement of the Stormwater Management
Facilities located on said Lot or compliance with the applicable North Carolina Sedimentation
and Erosion Control Permits. Specific special assessments shall be limited to the amount of
funds actually expended, or in the discretion of the Board of Directors, the amount of funds
reasonably estimated by the Board of Directors will be expended, by the Corporation to repair or
replace the Stormwater Management Facilities located upon the Lot or to comply with the
applicable North Carolina Sedimentation and Erosion Control Permit applicable to the Lot upon
which the specific special assessment is assessed. Special assessments, either general or specific,
together with interest, costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, shall be a charge and lien on the land
and, subject to the provisions of Paragraph S(c) hereof, shall by a continuing lien, upon the Lot
against which each such assessment is made. The personal obligation of an owner of a Lot for
delinquent special assessments, whether general or specific, shall not pass to a successor in title
to a Lot unless expressly assumed by the successor, but, subject to the provisions of this
Declaration, delinquent special assessments shall continue to be a lien upon such Lot.
o. Any annual general assessment, general special assessment or
specific special assessment, if not paid within thirty (30) days after the date such assessment is
due, together with interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, costs of collection, court
costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees shall constitute a lien against the Lot upon which such
assessment is levied. The Corporation may record notice of the same in the Office of the Clerk
of Superior Court of Onslow County or file a suit to collect such delinquent assessments and
charges. The Corporation may file Notice of Lis Pendens, bring an action at law against the
owner personally obligated to pay the same and/or bring an action to foreclose the lien against
the Property. The lien of any assessment 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 a first mortgage or any proceeding in lieu
therefor, shall extinguish the lien of such assessment as to payments which became due 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. No owner may waive or otherwise escape
liability for the assessments provided for herein.
p. In the event the Articles of Incorporation and/or Bylaws of the
Corporation are amended to expand the rights and duties of the Corporation, those amendments
shall have no effect on the Lots or the Subdivision unless, by recorded amendment to this
Declaration, joined in by Declarant, it is agreed that such amendments affect the Lots and the
Subdivision.
9. REMEDIES. In the case of failure of a Lot owner to comply with the
terms and provisions contained in these Restrictions, the Articles or the Bylaws of the
Corporation, the following relief shall be available:
a. The Declarant (whether or not the Declarant is the owner of any
Lot), the Corporation, the Committee, any Lot owner and any party to whose benefit these
Restrictions inure, including but not limited to the State of North Carolina or its assignees with

Restrictions, the Articles and Bylaws and also recover damages for such violation and the court
in any such action may award the successful party said pa ty's reasonable expenses and costs in
prosecuting such action, including reasonable attorney's fees.
b. The remedies hereby specified are cumulative and this
specification of them shall not be taken to preclude an aggrieved party's resort to any other
remedy at law, in equity or under any statute. No delay or failure on the part of the Corporation,
the Committee, the Declarant or an aggrieved party to invoke an available remedy with respect to
a violation of any of these Restrictions, the Articles and Bylaws shall be held to be a waiver by
that party of (or an estoppel of that party to assert) any right available to that party upon the
reoccurrence or continuation of said violation or the occurrence of a different violation.
10. GRANTEE'S ACCEPTANCE.
a. The owner of any Lot subject to these Restrictions, by acceptance
of a deed conveying title thereto, accepts such deed subject to each and all of these Restrictions

severable from the rest of the Restrictions and from every other one of the Restrictions and from
every combination of the Restrictions. Therefore; if any of the Restrictions shall be held to be
invalid or to be unenforceable or to lack the quality of running with the land, that holding shall
be without effect upon the validity, enforceability or "running" quality of any other one of the
Restrictions.
12. VARIANCES. The Committee may allow reasonable variances and
adjustments of these Restrictions in order to overcome practical difficulties and prevent
unnecessary hardships in the application of the provisions contained herein; provided, however,
that such is done in conformity with the intent and purpose of the general development scheme,
that in every instance such variance or adjustment will not be materially detrimental or injurious
to other property or improvements in the neighborhood of the Subdivision and that in each
instance such variance or adjustment complies with the requirements of the Permit. Any such
variance shall be recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Onslow County.
13. CAPTIONS. The captions preceding the various paragraphs and
subparagraphs of the Restrictions are for convenience of reference only and none of them shall
be used as an aid to the construction of any provision of the Restrictions. 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 the neuter.
14. AMENDMENT OF RESTRICTIONS. The Restrictions shall run with

by both at least sixty-seven percent (67%) of the owners of the Lots, and by Declarant, which
instrument is recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Onslow County and noted on the
margin of the Restrictions, if possible. No such amendment shall affect the rights of Declarant,
its successors or assigns, unless Declarant, its successors or assigns, joins in the execution of the
amendment. In addition to the above requirements; any amendment of the Restrictions set forth
in Paragraph 4(x) hereof may not be made without the express written consent of the State of
North Carolina, Division of Water Quality. Further, Declarant reserves and retains the right, but
not the obligation, in Declarant's sole discretion unilaterally to amend these Restrictions to
comply with any requirements imposed by any agency of the State of North Carolina with regard
to the Permit. These Restrictions may not be amended without Declarant's recorded written
consent.

Restrictions contained herein and any restriction or easement shown or noted on the Recorded
Plat, the provisions of these Restrictions shall control. Further, the provisions of these
Restrictions dealing with amelioration of the effect of a Restriction, such as those governing

16. APPLICABILITY AND EXCEPTIONS, ANNEXATION. These
Restrictions shall apply only to the Lots. No other property is restricted and such other property
