The Declarant is not obligated to impose the Restrictions upon any property other than the Lots. THE RESTRICTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS: 1. ARCHITECTURAL COMMITTEE. There hereby is constituted the Trailwood III Architectural Committee ("Committee") to be appointed, to be replaced, to possess the qualifications and to possess the powers as specified herein. The Committee shall consist of one individual to be appointed by Declarant until Declarant transfers its right to make such appointment. The initial member of the Committee hereby appointed by Declarant is Dewey L. Bordeaux, III. He shall serve until he resigns or is replaced by Declarant. If the initial member of the Committee resigns, the Declarant shall have the sole and absolute right to replace said member unless the Declarant has transferred the right to appoint the Committee as provided herein. The Declarant may transfer the power to appoint the Committee by a written document recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Onslow County specifically referencing this Declaration and specifically specifying the property for which the Committee appointment rights are transferred.

The provisions of this Paragraph 1 also shall apply to any Committee appointed by the Declarant for property subsequently annexed into the Subdivision. 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.

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. 4.

The Corporation shall indemnify and hold Declarant harmless from any loss, cost, claim, fee, fine, suit, damage or expense, including 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 Resources, the oversight, supervision, management and administration of the Permit shall be the sole responsibility of the Corporation. The Corporation's duties with regard to the Permit shall be carried out in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Restrictions, the Articles, the Bylaws and the Permit.

Declarant and each Lot owner hereby covenant and agree, and 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 respect to the Permit, may proceed at law and in equity to prevent the violation of any of these 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 and agreements herein contained, and subject to the jurisdiction, rights and powers of the Committee and the Corporation.

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 and bind all land to which they are applicable until February 28, 2012, after which time they shall be extended automatically for successive periods of ten (10) years. Except as provided below, the Restrictions may be amended at any time in full or in part by an instrument executed 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. 15. RESTRICTIONS CONTROL MAP. If there is any conflict between any 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 variances, shall apply to the restrictions shown by the Recorded Plat. 16. APPLICABILITY AND EXCEPTIONS, ANNEXATION. These Restrictions shall apply only to the Lots. No other property is restricted and such other property may be used for any purpose whatsoever.

From and after such time, if ever, Declarant transfers to the Corporation the right to appoint the members of the Committee for the annexed Lots, the owners of said annexed Lots shall have identical rights and duties with respect to the Committee as all other owners of Lots subject to the Committee appointed by the Corporation. Any such annexation(s) shall be evidenced by a written instrument of annexation recorded in the office of the Register of Deeds of Onslow County, which instrument shall specifically refer to this Declaration. 17.
