Skvarla, III, Secretary The subject permit was transferred to the Homeowners Association on February 24, 2014 per the attached permit. As you will see in the cover letter the project was inspected and found to be in compliance with the permit on November 4, 2013. The contact name listed on the February letter was Mr. Chris Manning of Premier Management Company because he was the contact listed on the transfer form, which you will find attached to the permit. Mr. Manning contacted me this week, and explained that you are the Homeowners Association President. Therefore, you have now been listed as the contact on the permit. Please note that the permit itself is issued to the Homeowners Association and not you personally. But, since you are the President you are the appropriate contact person for permit correspondence. If you have any questions, need additional copies of the permit or approved plans, please contact Kelly Johnson with DEMLR in the Wilmington Regional Office at (910) 796-7331.

This maintenance record will be kept in a log in a known set location. Any deficient BMP elements noted in the inspection will be corrected, repaired or replaced immediately. These deficiencies can affect the integrity of structures, safety of the public, and the removal efficiency of the BMP. Important maintenance procedures: — The drainage area will be carefully managed to reduce the sediment load to the infiltration basin. — Immediately after the infiltration basin is established, the vegetation will be watered twice weekly if needed until the plants become established (commonly six weeks). — No portion of the infiltration basin will be fertilized after the initial fertilization that is required to establish the vegetation. — The vegetation in and around the basin will be maintained at a height of approximately six inches. After the infiltration basin is established, it will be inspected once a quarter and within 24 hours after every storm event greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County). Records of operation and maintenance will be kept in a known set location and will be available upon request. Inspection activities shall be performed as follows.

After every runoff producing rainfall event and at least monthly inspect the infiltration system for erosion, trash accumulation, vegetative cover, and general condition. 2. Repair eroded areas immediately, re -seed as necessary to maintain adequate vegetative cover, mow vegetated cover to maintain a maximum height of six inches, and remove trash as needed. 3. After every runoff producing rainfall event and at least monthly inspect the bypass, inflow and overflow structures for blockage and deterioration. Remove any blockage and repair the structure to approved design specifications. 4. Remove accumulated sediment from the pretreatment system and infiltration basin annually or when depth in the pretreatment unit is reduced to 75% of the original design depth. The system shall be restored to the original design depth without over -excavating. Over -excavating may cause the required water table separation to be reduced and may compromise the ability of the system to perform as designed. Removed sediment shall be disposed of in an appropriate manner and shall not be handled in a manner that will adversely impact water quality (i.e. stockpiling near a stormwater treatment device or stream, etc.). A benchmark shall be established in the pretreatment unit. The benchmark will document the original design depth so that accurate sediment accumulation readings can be taken. The measuring device used to determine the depth at the benchmark shall be such that it will give an accurate depth reading and not readily penetrate into accumulated sediments. When the design depth reads 1 s feet in the pretreatment unit, the sediment shall be removed from both the pretreatment unit and the infiltration basin. If the Division determines that the system is failing, the system will immediately be repaired to original design specifications. If the system cannot be repaired to perform its design function, other stormwater control devices as allowed by NCAC 2H .1000 must be designed, approved and constructed.

Deed restrictions and protective covenants are necessary to ensure that the development maintains a "built -upon" area consistent with the design criteria used to size the stormwater control facility. I, Jerry Kinlaw , acknowledge, affirm and agree by my signature below, that I will cause the following deed restrictions and covenants to be recorded prior to the sale of any lot: 1. The following covenants are intended to ensure ongoing compliance with State Stormwater Management Permit Number SW8 060553, as issued by the Division of Water Quality under the Storm water Management Regulations. 2. The State of North Carolina is made a beneficiary of these covenants to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with the storm water management permit. 3. These covenants are to run with the land and be binding on all persons and parties claiming under them. 4. The covenants pertaining to stormwater may not be altered or rescinded without the express written consent of the State of North Carolina, Division of Water Quality. 5. Alteration of the drainage as shown on the approved plan may not take place without the concurrence of the Division of Water Quality. 6.

(b) Class B Lots. Class B Lots shall be all Lots owned by Declarant which have not been converted to Class A Lots as set forth below.

Any improvements placed on the Common Area by Declarant shall become the property of the Association upon completion of such improvements. Section 4. Regulation and Maintenance of Common Area and Common Area Easements. It is the intent of the Declarant that the Common Area be preserved for the perpetual benefit of the Owners. (a) Regulation of Common Area. The Association may adopt and promulgate rules and regulations governing the use of the Common Area by Owners and their family, tenants, guests and invitees. No Owner or other permitted user shall use the Common Area or any portion 5/4/2011 thereof in violation of the rules and regulations contained in this Declaration or subsequently adopted by the Association.

ARTICLE V COVENANT FOR MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENTS Section 1. Creation of the Lien and Personal Obligation of Assessments. Each Owner of a Lot, by acceptance of a deed therefore, whether or not it shall be so expressed in such deed, is deemed to covenant and agree to pay to the Association annual assessments and special assessments, such assessments to be established and collected as hereinafter provided. All assessments which are unpaid when due, together with interest and late charges set forth in Section 9 of this Article V and all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney's fees, shall be a charge against and, a continuing lien upon the Lot against which such assessment is made subject to § 47F-3-116 of the Act, as amended. Each such assessment or charge, together with 5/4/2011 interest and costs of collection, including reasonable attorneys' fees, subject to notice provided in accordance with § 47C J-116(e1) of the Act, shall also be the personal or corporate obligation of the person(s), firm(s) or corporation(s) owning such Lot at the time when the assessment fell due, but such personal obligation shall not be imposed upon such Owner's successors in title unless expressly assumed by them. Although unpaid assessments and charges are not the personal obligation of such Owner's successors in title unless expressly assumed by them, the unpaid assessments and charges shall continue to be a lien upon the Lot against which the assessment or charge was made. It is the intent of the Declarant that any monetary fines imposed against an Owner pursuant to the Bylaws of the Association or Section 7 of Article XII of this Declaration and subject to §47F-3-107.1 of the Act shall constitute a lien against the Lot of such Owner to the same extent as if such fine were an assessment against such Lot. Section 2. Purposes of Assessments. The assessments levied by the Association shall be used exclusively to promote the recreation, health, safety and welfare of the residents of the Subdivision and, in particular, for: (i) acquisition, improvement and maintenance of properties, services and facilities related to the use and enjoyment of the Common Area; (ii) repair and reconstruction of improvements on, the Common Area, including, without limitation, the cost of repair, replacement and additions thereto and the cost of labor, equipment, materials, management and supervision thereof; and specifically including maintenance and repair of all private streets, alleys and roadways within the subdivision; (iii) payment of taxes and public assessments levied against the Common Area owned by the Association in fee; (iv) procurement and maintenance of insurance in accordance with the Section 4(c) of Article IV of this Declaration; (v) employment of attorneys, accountants and other persons or firms to represent the Association when necessary; (vi) payment of principal and interest on funds borrowed for Association purposes; (viii) such other needs as may arise; and (ix) payment for the maintenance and operation of street lights. The Declarant reserves the right to subject the real property in this subdivision to a contract with Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. for the installation of street lighting, which requires a continuing monthly payment to Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc. by each residential customer. Said monthly payment shall be included in the assessments charged to each Owner. Section J. Annual Assessments. (a) Maximum Annual Assessment. Declarant shall establish the Maximum Annual Assessment and initial annual assessment for Class A Lots; thereafter, the terms "Maximum Annual Assessment", annual assessment, and special assessment shall mean the Maximum, annual and special assessments applicable to Class A Lots. Until December 31, 2011, the Maximum Annual Assessment shall be $420 for each Class A Lot. For so long as a Class B Lot(s) exists, the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, shall have the authority to adopt an annual budget without a vote of the membership. Once Class B Lots cease to exist, the Maximum Annual Assessment may be increased by the Board of Directors effective January I of each year without a vote of the Members, but subject to the limitation that the percentage of any such increase shall not exceed 10% of the Maximum 5/4/2011 Annual Assessment for the previous year unless such increase is approved as set forth in Section 3(b), below. (b) Annual Assessments: Ratification of Budgets. After Class B Lots cease to exist, the Board of Directors shall adopt a proposed budget (including the proposed annual assessment for each Class of Lots) at least annually. Within 30 days after adoption of the proposed budget, the Board of Directors shall send a copy of the proposed budget and shall give written notice to the Members of a meeting of the Members to consider ratification of the budget, such meeting to be held not sooner than 10 days nor more than 60 days after the mailing of such notice. Such meeting may, but need not be, combined with the annual meeting of the Members. Except as required by Section 7 below, there shall be no requirement that a quorum be present in order to vote on ratification of the budget (although a quorum must be present to vote on other matters). The budget shall be deemed ratified unless at that meeting Members having a majority of the votes of the entire membership vote to reject the budget. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the budget provides for annual assessments not greater than 10% larger than the assessment in effect for the immediately preceding year, such budget shall be deemed ratified unless Members having at least 80% of the votes of the entire membership vote to reject the budget. If the proposed budget is rejected, the budget last ratified by the Members shall be continued until such time as the Members ratify a subsequent budget proposed by the Board. Any annual assessment ratified by the Members shall continue thereafter from year to year as the annual assessment until changed by the Board and ratified by the Members as set forth herein. Section 4. Special Assessments. In addition to the annual assessments authorized above, the Association may levy, in any assessment year, special assessments for the purpose of defraying, in whole or in part, the cost of any construction, repair or replacement of a capital improvement on the Common Area, including fixtures and personal property related thereto, for repayment of indebtedness and interest thereon, or for any other purpose, provided that any such assessment shall have the same assent of the Members as provided in Section 3(b) of this Article. Section 5. Assessment Rate: Collection Period. Except as provided in Section 6 of this Article V, the annual and special assessments shall be fixed at a uniform rate for all Lots within each subclass of Lots and may be collected on a yearly, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly basis, as determined by the Board of Directors. Section 6. Declarant's Assessments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Declaration or the Bylaws of the Association, the Declarant shall not be obligated for, nor subject to, any annual or special assessment for any Lot or other property that it owns within the Properties, provided, however, that the Declarant shall be responsible for paying the difference between: (i) the operating expenses of the Association; and (ii) the total operating revenues of the Association from all sources including, without limitation, annual and special assessments, revenues generated from fees charged by the Association for use of the Common Area, and investment income (said difference being hereinafter referred to as the "Operating Deficit"). For purposes of this Section, the term `operating expenses" shall not include contributions to any reserves for replacement, operating reserves, depreciation reserves, capital expenditures, or special assessments. 5/4/2011 Declarant may, by written notice given by the Declarant to the Association on or before November 30 of any year, to be effective as of January 1, terminate its obligation to pay the Operating Deficit and waive its right to exclusion from assessments. In such event, each Lot owned by the Declarant which contains a Dwelling for which a certificate of occupancy has been issued shall be assessed at the rate of twenty-five percent (25%) of the annual assessment in effect for Class A Lots, as the same may change from time to time. Upon sale of such Lot by Declarant to any other person or entity, such Lot shall be assessed at Class A rate, commencing on the day on which title to such Lot is transferred to such third parry. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Declaration, a Lot owned by the Declarant which contains a Dwelling occupied as a residence (but not as a model or sales center) shall be assessed at the rate applicable to Class A Lots. Section 7. Notice and Quorum for any Action Authorized Under Sections 3(a) and 4. After Class B lots cease to exist, written notice of any meeting called for the purpose of taking any action authorized under Section 3(a) or 4 shall be sent to all Members not less than ten (10) days nor more than sixty (60) days prior to the meeting. At such meeting, the presence of Members, in person or by proxy, entitled to cast twent five (25%) percent of the votes of the entire membership shall constitute a quorum. If the required quorum is not present, another meeting may be called subject to the same notice requirements, and if called for a date not later than sixty (60) days after the date of the first meeting, the required quorum at the subsequent meeting shall be one-half ('/z) of the required quorum at the preceding meeting. Section 8. Date of Commencement of Annual Assessments: Amount of Initial and Subsequent Annual Assessments: Certificate of Payment. Unless a different commencement date is set by the Board of Directors, the annual assessments provided for herein shall commence as to all Lots in any phase on the first day of the month following the conveyance of a Lot or Unit within that phase to an Owner other than the Declarant or a Builder. Unless a lower amount is set by the Board of Directors and ratified by the Members, the first annual assessment shall be the "Maximum Annual Assessment" set forth in Section 3 of this Article and shall be prorated according to the number of days remaining in the calendar year. The Association shall, upon demand, and for such reasonable charge as the Board of Directors may determine, furnish a certificate signed by an officer of the Association setting forth whether the assessments on a specified Lot have been paid. If such certificate states that an assessment has been paid, such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of payment. Section 9. Effect of Nonpayment of Assessments: Remedies. An assessment not paid within ten (10) days after the due date shall incur such late charge as the Board of Directors may from time to time establish, and, if not paid within thirty (30) days after the due date, shall also bear interest from the due date at the rate of eighteen percent (I8%) per annum or the highest rate allowed by law, whichever is less. The Association may bring an action at law or in equity against the Owner personally obligated to pay the same and/or foreclose the lien against the Lot for which such assessment is due subject to § 47F-3-116 of the Act, as amended. Interest, late payment charges, reasonable attorneys' fees, and the costs of such action or foreclosure shall be added to the amount of such assessment. No Owner 'may waive or otherwise escape liability for 5/4/2011 the assessments provided for herein by non-use of the Common Area or by abandonment of his Lot. Section 10. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The liens provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage or first mortgage on a Lot. Sale or transfer of a Lot shall not affect any assessment lien; however, the sale or transfer of a Lot pursuant to foreclosure of a first mortgage, or any proceeding in lieu of foreclosure thereof, shall extinguish the lien of any assessment which became due prior to the date of such conveyance. No such sale or transfer shall relieve such Lot from liability for any assessment thereafter becoming due or from the lien thereof, but the liens provided for herein shall continue to be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage. Section 11. Initial Capital Contribution. At the time of closing of each sale of a Dwelling, including the initial sale of same, a sum equal to one-fourth (1/4) of the annual assessment for Class A Lots in effect at the time of such sale shall be collected from the purchaser of such Dwelling and transferred to the Association as part of its working capital. The purpose of such working capital contributions is to ensure that the Association will have adequate cash available to defray operating costs, meet unforeseen expenditures or to acquire additional equipment or services deemed by the Board of Directors to be necessary or desirable. Amounts paid pursuant to this Section shall not be considered as an advance payment of any regular or special assessment. Section 12. Exempt Property. All property dedicated to and accepted by a public authority and all property owned by a charitable or non-profit organization exempt from taxation by the laws of the State of North Carolina shall be exempt from the assessments created herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no land or improvements devoted to dwelling use shall be exempt from said assessments. ARTICLE VI RIGHTS OF LENDERS Section 1. Books and Records. Any owner or holder of a first mortgage on any Lot, or its agent, shall have the right, during normal business hours, to examine copies of this Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and the books and records of the Association and, upon written request to the Association, and payment of copying and mailing costs, to receive a copy of the financial statement for the immediately preceding fiscal year.

The granting of easements for utilities or other purposes shall not be deemed a transfer within the meaning of this subsection. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prohibit the Association from exchanging Common Area for other real property of like utility and value as provided in Section l(c) of Article IV of this Declaration, or to require the approval of such exchange by the holders of first mortgages on the Lots; (b) Change the method of determining the obligations, assessments, dues or other charges which may be levied against a Lot; (c) Fail to maintain hazard insurance on insurable improvements on the Common Area on a current replacement cost basis in an amount not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the insurable value; or (d) Use the proceeds of any hazard insurance policy covering losses to any part of the Common Area for other than the repair, replacement or reconstruction of the damaged improvements. Section 4. Payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums. The owners or holders of first mortgages on Lots, jointly or singly, may pay taxes or other charges which are in default and which have or may become a charge or lien against any of the Common Area and may pay overdue premiums on hazard insurance policies or secure new hazard insurance coverage upon the lapse of a policy covering property owned by the Association. The persons, firms or corporations making such payments shall be owed immediate reimbursement therefore by the Association. ARTICLE VII EASEMENTS Section 1. Access and Utility Easements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless all parties to any such dispute otherwise agree in writing, the following shall not be deemed to be Claims covered by this Subsection (c) and shall not be subject to the provisions of Subsection (d): (1) any proceeding by the Association against any Bound Party to enforce the provisions of Article V of this Declaration: 5/4/2011 (2) any proceeding by the Association or the Declarant to obtain a temporary restraining order or injunction (or equivalent equitable relief) and such other ancillary relief as the court may deem necessary in order to maintain the status quo and preserve the Association's or the Declarant's ability to act under and enforce the provisions of Articles VIII and XI of this Declaration; (3) any proceeding between or among Owners, which does not include the Declarant, a Builder, or the Association as a party, if such proceeding asserts a Claim which would constitute a cause of action independent of the Governing Documents; or (4) any proceeding in which no Bound Party is an indispensable party. With the consent of all parties thereto, any dispute involving any of the foregoing excepted actions may be submitted to the alternative dispute resolution procedures set forth in Subsection (d). (d) Mandatory Procedures. (1) Notice.

(2) Negotiation and Mediation. (i) The Parties shall make every reasonable effort to meet in person and confer for the purpose of resolving the Claim by good faith negotiation. If requested in uniting, accompanied by a copy of the Notice, the Board of Directors of the Association may appoint a representative to assist the Parties in their negotiations. ( ii) If the Parties do not resolve the Claim within 30 days after the date of the Notice (or within such other time period as may be agreed upon by the Parties), Claimant shall have an additional 30 days in which to submit the Claim to mediation under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the AAA's Commercial or Construction Industry Mediation Rules, as appropriate. 5/4/2011 (iii) If Claimant does not submit the Claim to mediation within such time, or does not appear for the mediation. Claimant shall be deemed to have waived the Claim, and Respondent shall be released and discharged from any and all liability to Claimant on account of such Claim; provided, nothing herein shall release or discharge the Respondent from any liability to any person or entity other than the Claimant. (iv) Any settlement of the Claim through negotiation or mediation shall be documented in writing and signed by the Parties. If the Parties do not settle the Claim within 30 days after submission of the matter to AAA mediation, or within such other time as may be determined by the mediator or agreed to by the Parties, the mediator shall issue a written notice of termination of the mediation process, which notice shall state that the Parties are at an impasse and set forth the date that mediation was terminated (hereinafter "Termination of Mediation"). (v) Each Party shall bear its own costs of the mediation, including attorneys' fees, and each Party shall share equally all fees and expenses of the mediator and the administrative fees of mediation. If the Parties agree to a resolution of a Claim through negotiation or mediation as set forth in this Subsection (d), and any Party thereafter fails to abide by the terms of the settlement agreement, any other Party may file suit or initiate arbitration proceedings to enforce the agreement without the need to again comply with the procedures set forth in this Subsection (d). In such event, the Party taking action to enforce the agreement shall be entitled to recover from the non -complying Party (or, if more than one Party is in noncompliance, from all non- complying Parties pro rata) all costs incurred by such Party in enforcing the agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and court costs. (3) Binding Arbitration. (i) After Termination of Mediation, Claimant shall be entitled to submit the Claim to final, binding arbitration under the auspices of the AAA in accordance with the AAA's Commercial or Construction Industry Arbitration Rules, as appropriate.

Any judgment upon the award entered by the arbitrator may be entered in and enforced by a court of competent jurisdiction. If the amount claimed by the Complainant or, by the Respondent in a counterclaim, exceeds $250,000, the Claim shall be heard and determined by three arbitrators. Otherwise, unless the Parties otherwise agree, the Claim shall be heard and determined by an arbitrator. An arbitrator shall have expertise in the areas) of the Claim, which may include legal expertise if legal issues are involved. (ii) Each Party shall bear its own costs of the arbitration, including attorneys' fees, and each Party shall share equally all fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the administrative fees of arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Party unsuccessfully contests the validity or scope of arbitration in a court of law, the non -contesting Party shall be awarded reasonable attorneys' fees 5/4/2011 and expenses incurred in defending such contest. All decisions regarding the arbitrability of any Claim shall be decided by the arbitrator(s). (iii) The award of the arbitrators shall be accompanied by detailed written findings of fact and conclusions of law.
