pursuant to the By-Laws of the Association. Further, with
respect to the ownership and use of each Condominium Unit the
following restrictions and limitations shall apply:
12.1 Nothing shall be done or kept in any Unit or
in the General Common Elements and facilities or Limited Common
Elements and facilities which will increase the rate of insurance
on said common or limited common areas and facilities without the
prior written consent of the Board of Governors. No owner shall

13. Use and Occupancy.
13.1 All Condominium Units shall be used and
occupied solely for lodging and residential purposes by the
owner, by the owner's family or the owner's guests and tenants.

not be considered a violation of this covenant.

daily rental rate for the unit, at. the time of the violation,
which assessment, when paid, shall be deposited in the general
funds of the condominium association for use in upgrading and
repairing the common elements of the condominium. All sums
assessed against an owner for violation of the owner's personal
use restriction and unpaid shall constitute a lien for the
benefit of the condominium association on that owner's unit,
which lien shall be evidenced by written notice placed of record
in the office of the clerk and recorder of Pitkin County,
Colorado, and may be collected by foreclosure on an owner's
condominium unit by the association in like manner as a mortgage
or deed of trust on real property. The condominium association's
failure to enforce the owner's personal use restriction shall
give the City of Aspen the right to enforce the restriction by
the assessment and the lien provided for hereunder. If the City
of Aspen enforces the restriction, the City shall receive the
funds collected as a result of the assessment for the violation.
In the event litigation results from the enforcement of the
restriction, as part of its reward to the prevailing party, the
court shall award such party its court costs together with
reasonable attorney's fees incurred.

o
o
valid easement for the encroachment and for the maintenance of
same, so long as it stands, shall and does exist. If any portion
of a Unit encroaches upon the General Common Elements, or upon
any adjoining unit or units, a valid easement for the encroach-
ment and for the maintenance of same, so long as it stands,
shall and does exist. Such encroachments and easements shall not
be considered or determined to be encumbrances either on the
General Common Elements or on the Units. In the event that any
one or more of the Units or buildings or improvements comprising
part of the General Common Elements are partially or totally
destroyed and are then rebuilt or reconstructed in substantially
the same location and as a result of such rebuilding a portion
thereof shall encroach as provided in the preceding sentence, a

requesting the same, or against the General or Limited Common
Elements. Each owner shall indemnify and hold harmless each of
the other owners from and against all liability arising from the

evidence of the information contained therein in favor of any
person relying thereon in good faith regardless of the time
elapsed since the date thereof. The first such certificate shall
be recorded on or before a date which is 90 days from the record-
ing of this Declaration; however, no failure to renew such
-9-
o
o

powers, duties or responsibilities of any duly constituted Board
of Directors, or the officers of any Managing Agent properly
appointed by them.
I

Elements therein or accessible therefrom, or for making emergency
repairs therein necessary to prevent damage to such Common
Elements or to another Unit or Units. Damage to the interior or
any part of a Unit or Units resulting from the maintenance,
repair, emergency repair or replacement of any of the General or
Limited Common Elements or as a result of emergency repairs to
General or Limited Common Elements, within another Unit at the
instance of the Association shall be a common expense of all of
the other owners; provided, however, that if such damage is the
result of the misuse or negligence of a Unit owner, then such
owner shall be responsible and liable 'for all such damage. All
damaged improvements shall be restored to substantially the same
condition of such improvements prior to damage. All maintenance,
repairs, and replacements as to the General or Limited Common

of Directors or the Association, after first demonstrating to the
satisfaction of said Board of Directors that such work or act
will not impair structural soundness and that such work or act
shall be done or performed in a workmanlike manner. Any expense
to the Board of Directors for investigation under this Paragraph,
including but not limited to the engaging of a structural
engineer or architect, shall be for the account of the owner
seeking the consent. The decision of the Board of Directors
shall not be subject to review and shall be subject to their
absolute discretion. An owner shall also keep the balcony area
appurtenant to his Unit in a clean and sanitary condition and
free and clear of snow, ice and any accumulation of water. All
other maintenance or repairs to any Limited Common Elements

of the Association. Each owner shall comply strictly with the
provisions of this Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation and
the By-Laws of the Association, and the decisions and resolutions
of the Association adopted pursuant thereto as the same may be
lawfully amended from time to time. Failure to comply with any
of the same shall be grounds for an action to recover sums due
for damages, or for injunctive relief or both, and for reimburse-
ment of all costs and attorneys' fees incurred in connection
therewith, which action may be maintained by the Managing Agent
or Board of Directors in the name of the Association on behalf of
the owners, or, in a proper case by an aggrieved owner.

or failure of the Board of Directors to fix the assessment for

and the maintenance, improvements, and replacements giving rise
to such expenses shall be deemed a benefit to and a burden upon
the Condominium Units within the purview of this Condominium

such limits as may from time to time be determined, covering each
Unit owner, persons renting from the owner, and their invitees
and business guests, each member of the Board of Directors, the
Managing Agent and the resident manager. Such public liability
coverage shall also cover cross liability claims of one insured
agent against another and shall contain waivers of subrogation to
-13-
o
o
the extent reasonably practicable. Each owner may obtain
additional insurance at his or her own expense for his or her own
benefit provided that all such policies shall contain waivers of
subrogation to the extent practicable, and provided further, that
the liability of the carriers issuing insurance shall not be
affected or diminished by reason of any such insurance carried by
any Unit owner.
25.2 To the extent any insurance is to be main-
tained in amounts calculated by reference to replacement value,
the Board of Directors shall designate a general contractor
licensed to do business in the State of Colorado to estimate such
replacement value each three years beginning with the three year
period ending three years from the date of the recording of this
Declaration.
25.3 Insurance coverage of the furnishings and
other items of personal property belonging to an owner and
casualty and public liability insurance coverage within each
individual Unit shall be the responsibility of the owner thereof.
I
26. Owner's PeEsonal Obligation for Payment of

each Condominium Unit shall be the personal and individual deot
of the owner thereof. No owner may exempt himself or herself
from liability for his or her contribution towards the common
expenses by waiver of the use or enjoyment of any of the Common
Elements or by abandonment of his or her Unit. Both the Board of
Directors and Managing Agent shall have the responsibility to
take prompt action to collect any unpaid assessment which remains
unpaid more than fifteen (15) days from the due date for payment
thereof. In the event of default in the payment of the assess-
ment, the Unit owner shall be obligated to pay interest'at the
rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum on the amount of the
assessment from due date thereof, together with all expenses
including attorneys' fees incurred, together with such late
charges as provided by the By-Laws of the Association. ~uit to

27. Assessment Lien and Foreclosure. All sums assessed
but unpaid for the share of common expenses chargeable to any
Condominium Unit shall constitute a lien on such Unit superior to
all other liens and encumbrances, except only for tax and special
assessment liens on the Unit and liens in favor of any holder of
a first or second mortgage or beneficiary of a deed of trust of
record, including all unpaid obligatory sums as may be provided
by such encumbrance. To evidence such lien, the Board of
Directors or the Managing Agent shall prepare a written notice of
lien assessment setting forth the amount of such unpaid indebted-
ness, the name of the owner of the Condominium Unit and a
description of the Condominium Unit.' Such a notice shall be
signed by one of the Board of Directors or by one of the officers
-14-
o
o
UL ~l~ 8bsociation or by the Managing Agent and shall be recorded
in the office of the Clerk and Recorder of pitkin County,
Colorado. Such lien for the common expenses shall attach from
the date of the failure of payment of the assessment. Such lien
may be enforced by the foreclosure of the defaulting owner's
Condominium Unit by the Association in like manner as a mortgage
or deed of trust on real property subsequent to the recording of
a notice or claim thereof. In any such proceeding the owner
shall be required to pay the Association the monthly assessment
for the Condominium Unit during the period of foreclosure, and
the Association shall be entitled to a receiver to collect the
same. The Association shall have the power to bid in the
Condominium unit at foreclosure or other legal sale and to
acquire and hold, lease, mortgage, vote the votes appurtenant to,
conveyor otherwise deal with the same. Any encumbrancer holding
a lien on a Condominium Unit may pay, but shall not be required
to pay, any unpaid common expenses payable with respect to such
Unit, and upon such payment such encumbrancer shall have a lien
on such Unit for the amounts paid of the same rank as the lien of
his encumbrance. Upon request of a mortgagee or deed of trust
beneficiary, the Association shall report to such mortgagee or,
beneficiary of a Condominium Unit any unpaid assessments
remaining unpaid for longer than thirty (30) days after the same
are due; provided, however, that a mortgagee or beneficiary shall
have furnished to the Managing Agent or the Board of Directors
notice of such encumbrance.

if there is no Managing Agent, then to the Association of a
reasonable fee not to exceed Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00), and
upon the written request of any owner or any mortgagee, deed of
trust beneficiary, or prospective mortgagee or beneficiary, of a
Condominium Unit, the Association, by its Managing Agent, or if
there is no Managing Agent then by the financial officer of the
Association shall issue a written statement setting forth the
amount of the unpaid common expenses, if any, with respect to the
subject Unit, the amount of the current monthly assessment and
the date that such assessment becomes due, credit for any
advanced payments of common assessments, for prepaid items, such
as insurance premiums, but not including accumulated amounts for
reserves or sinking funds, if any, which statement shall be
conclusive upon the Association in favor of all persons who rely
thereon in good faith. Unless such request for a statement of
indebtedness shall be complied with within ten (10) days, all
unpaid common expenses which became due prior to the date of
making such request shall be subordinate to the rights of the
person requesting such statement~ The grantee of a Condominium
Unit shall be jointly and severally liable with the grantor for
all unpaid assessments against the latter for the unpaid common
assessments up to the time of the grant or conveyance, without
prejudice to the grantee's right to recover from the grantor the
amounts paid by the grantee therefor; provided, however, that
upon payment of a reasonable fee not to exceed Twenty-five

Dollars ($25.00), as is hereinabove provided, and upon written
request, any such prospective grantee shall be entitled to a
statement from the Managing Agent, or if there is no Managing
Agent, then from the Association, setting ~orth the amount of the
unpaid assessments, if any, with respect to the subject unit, the
amount of the current monthly assessment, the date that such
assessment becomes due, and credits for any advanced payments of
common assessments, prepaid items, such as insurance premiums,
which statements shall be conclusive upon the Association.
Unless such request for such a statement shall be complied with
within ten (10) days of such request, then such requesting
grantee shall not be liable for, nor shall the Unit conveyed be
subject to a lien for any unpaid assessments against the subject
unit up to the date such request was made. The provisions set
forth in this paragraph shall not apply to the initial sales and
conveyances of Condominium Units made by Declarant, and such
sales shall be free from common expenses to the date of con-
veyance made or to a date as agreed upon by Declarant and
Declarant's grantee.
I
29. Mort a a Condominium Unit - Priorit. An owner
shall have the r1ght rom t1me to t1me to mortgage or encumber
his or her interest by deed of trust, mortgage or other security
instrument. A first mortgage or deed of trust beneficiary shall
be one which has first and paramount priority under applicable
law. The owner of a Condominium unit may create junior
mortgages, liens, or encumbrances on the following conditions:
I
I
29.1 That any such junior mortgages or liens shall
always be subordinate to all of the terms, conditions, covenants,
restrictions, uses, limitations, obligations, liens or common
expenses (except as otherwise provided herein), and other obliga-
tions created by this Declaration, the Articles of Incorporation
and the By-Laws for the Association.
29.2 That the mortgagee or lien holder under any
junior encumbrance shall release, for the purpose of restoration
of any improvements upon the mortgaged premises, all of his
right, title, and interest in and to the proceeds under all
insurance policies upon said premises obtained by the Association
to the extent of such restoration (except as otherwise provided
herein). Such release shall be furnished forthwith by a junior
encumbrancer upon written request of one or more of the members
of the Board of Directors of the Association.
30. Association as Attorney-in-fact, Damag~,
Obsolescence and Condemnation. This Declaration does hereby make
mandatory the irrevocable appointment of an attorney-in-fact to
deal with the improvements to the Condominium Project upon their
condemnation, damage, destruction, or obsolescence. Title to any
Condominium unit is declared and expressly made subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, and acceptance by any grantee of a
deed or other instrument of conveyance from the Declarant or from
any owner or grantor shall constitute appointment of the
-16-
.
o
attorney in-fact herein provided. All of the owners irrevocably
constitute and appoint the Association their true and lawful
attorney in their name, place, and stead for the purpose of
dealing with any improvements within the condominium project upon
their condemnation or damage, destruction,' or obsolescense, all
as is hereinafter provided. As attorney-in-fact, the Association
by its President and Secretary or Assistant Secretary, shall have
full and complete authorization, right and power to make, execute
and deliver any contract, deed or other instrument with respect
to the interest of a Condominium Unit owner which is necessary
and appropriate to exercise the powers herein granted. Repair
and construction of the improvements as used in the succeeding
subparagraphs means restoring the improvements to substantially
the same condition in which they existed prior to the damage,
with each Unit and the General and Limited Common Elements having
substantially the same vertical and horizontal boundaries as
before. The proceeds of any insurance collected shall be avail-
able to the Association for the purpose of repair, restoration,
or replacements unless the owners and all first or second mort-
gagers or deed of trust beneficiaries agree not to rebuild in
accordance with the provisions set forth hereinafter.
I
30.1 In the event of damage or destruction due to
fire or other disaster, the insurance proceeds, if sufficient to
reconstruct the improvements, shall be applied by the
Association, as attorney-in-fact, to cause the repair and
restoration of the improvements.
[
30.2 If the insurance proceeds are insufficient to
repair and reconstruct the improvements, and if such damage is
determined to be not more than sixty percent (60%) of all of the
improvements in the Condominium Project, not including land (but
including landscaping, roads, and including utilities to the
extent their replacement is not the responsibility of a utility
company), such damage or destruction shall be promptly repaired
and reconstructed by the Association, as attorney-in-fact, using
the proceeds of insurance and the proceeds of a special assess-
ment if the insurance proceeds are insufficient, to be made
against all of the owners and their Condominium Units. Such
assessment shall be a common expense and made pro rata according
to each owner's percentage interest in the General Common
Elements and shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days
after written notice thereof. The Association shall have full
authority, right and power, as attorney-in-fact, to cause the
repair or restoration of the improvements using all of the
insurance proceeds for such purpose notwithstanding the failure
of an owner to pay the assessment. The assessment provided for
herein shall be a debt of each owner and a lien on his or her
Condominium Unit and may be enforced and collected as is provided
in paragraphs 26 and 27 above. In addition thereto, the Associ-
ation, as attorney-in-fact, shall have the absolute right and
power to sell the Condominium Unit of any owner refusing or
failing to pay such deficiency, within the time provided, and if
not so paid, the Association shall cause to be recorded a notice

to repair and reconstruct the damaged'improvements, and if such
damage is determined to be more than sixty percent (60%) of all
of the improvements in the Condominium Project, not including
land (but including landscaping, roads, and utilities when re-
placement is not the responsibility of a utility company) and if
the owners representing an aggregate ownership interest of
fifty-one percent (51%) or more, of the General Common Elements
do not voluntarily, within one hundred (100) days thereafter make
provisions for reconstruction, which plan must have the unanimous
approval or consent of every first and second mortgagee, or deed
of trust beneficiary, the Association shall forthwith record a
notice setting forth such fact or facts, and upon the recording
of such notice by the Association, the entire premises, including
the damaged part and the undamaged part, shall be sold by the
Association, as attorney-in-fact, for all of the owners, free and
clear and clear of the other provisions contained in this Dec-
laration, the Condominium Map and the By-Laws; provided, however,
assessments for Common Elements shall not be abated for the
period prior to sale. The insurance settlement proceeds shall be
collected by the Association, and such proceeds shall be divided
by the Association according to each owner's percentage interest
in the General Common Elements, and such divided proceeds shall
be paid into separate accounts, each such account representing
one of the Condominium Units. Each such account shall be in the

shall be used and disbursed, without contribution from one
account to another, by the Association, as attorney-in-fact, for
the same purpose and in the same order as ~s provided in sub-
paragraphs 30.2.1 through 30.2.5 of this paragraph.

I
30.4 If within the time provided in paragraph
30.3 above, the owners representing an aggregate ownership in-
terest of fifty-one percent (51%) or more of the General Common
elements adopt a plan for reconstruction which plan has the
unanimous approval of all first and second mortgagees and deed of
trust beneficiaries, then all of the owners shall be bound by the
terms and other provisions of such plan. Any special assessment
made in connection with such plan shall be a common expense and
made pro rata according to each owner's percentage interest in
the General Common Elements and shall be due and payable as
provided by the terms of such plan, but not sooner than sixty
(60) days after written notice thereof. The Association shall
have full authority, right and power, as attorney-in-fact, to
cause the repair or restoration of improvements using all of the
insurance proceeds for such purpose notwithstanding the failure
of an owner to pay the assessment. The assessment provided for
herein shall be a debt of each owner and a lien on his or her
Condominium Unit and may be enforced and collected as is provided
in paragraphs 26 and 27 above. In addition thereto, the Asso-
ciation, as attorney-in-fact, shall have the absolute right and
power to sell the Condominium Unit of any owner refusing or
failing to pay such assessment within the time provided, and if
not so paid, the Association shall cause to be recorded a notice
that the Condominium Unit of a delinquent owner shall be sold by
the Association. The delinquent owner shall be required to pay
the Association the costs and expenses for filing the notices,
interest at the rate of twenty-four percent (24%) per annum on
the amount of the assessment and all costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees. The proceeds derived from the sale of such
Condominium Unit shall be used and disbursed by the Association,
as attorney-in-fact, for the same purposes and in the same order
as is provided in subparagraphs 30.2.1 through 30.2.5 of this
paragraph.

30.5 The owners representing an aggregate owner-
ship interest of eighty percent (80%) or more of the General
Common Elements may agree that the General Common Elements are
obsolete and adopt a plan for their renewal and reconstruction,
which plan has the unanimous approval of all first and second
mortgagees and deed of trust beneficiaries of record at the time
of the adoption of such plan. If a plan for renewal and recon-
struction is adopted, notice of such plan shall be recorded, and
the expense of renewal and reconstruction shall be payable by all
of the owners as common expenses; provided, however, that an
owner not a party to such a plan for renewal or reconstruction
may give written notice to the Association within fifteen (15)
days after the date of adoption of such plan that such unit shall
-19-
o
o
I
I
I
be purchased by the Association for the fair market value there-
of. The Association shall then have thirty days (thereafter)
within which to cancel such plan. If such plan is not cancelled,
the Condominium Unit of the requesting owner shall be purchased
according to the following procedures. If such owner and the
Association can agree on the fair market value thereof, then such
sale shall be consummated within thirty (30) days thereafter. If
the parties are unable to agree, the date when either party
notifies the other that he or she is unable to agree with the
other shall be the "commencement date" from which all periods of
time mentioned herein shall be measured. \~ithin ten (10) days
following the commencement date, each party shall nominate in
writing (and give notice of such nomination to the other party)
an appraiser. If either party fails to make such a nomination,
the appraiser nominated shall, within five (5) days after default
by the other party appoint another appraiser. If the two desig-
nated or selected appraisers are unable to agree as to the fair
market value of the Condominium Unit, they shall appoint another
appraiser to be umpire between them, if they can agree on such
person. If they are unable to agree upon such umpire, each
appraiser previously appointed shall nominate two appraisers, and
from the names of the four appraisers so nominated one shall be
drawn by lot by the appraiser appointed by the owner in the
presence of the other appraiser, and the person whose name was so
drawn shall be the umpire. The nominations from whom the umpire
is to be drawn by lot shall be submitted within ten (10) days of
the failure of the two appraisers to agree, which, in any event,
shall not be later than twenty (20) days following the appoint-
ment of the second appraiser. The decision of the appraisers as
to the fair market value, or in the case of their disagreement,
then the decision of the umpire, shall be final and binding. The
expenses and fees of such appraisers shall be borne equally by
the Association and the owner. The sale shall be consummated
within fifteen (15) days thereafter, and the Association, as
attorney-in-fact, shall disburse the proceeds for the same pur-
poses and in the same order as is provided in subparagraphs
30.2.1 through 30.2.5 of this paragraph.
30.6 The owners representing an aggregate owner-
ship interest of eighty percent (80%) or more of the General
Common Elements, with the unanimous consent of all holders of the
first mortgage and deeds of trust and second mortgagee and deeds
of trust, may agree that the Condominium Units are obsolete and
the same should be sold. In such instance, the Association shall
forthwith record a notice setting forth such fact or facts, and
upon the recording of such notice by the Association's President
and Secretary or Assistant Secretary, the entire premises shall
be sold by the Association, as attorney-in-fact for all of the
owners, free and clear of the provisions contained in this Decla-
ration, the Map and By-Laws. The sales proceeds shall be appor-
tioned between the owners on the basis of each owner's percentage
interest in the General Common Elements, and such apportioned
proceeds shall be paid into separate accounts, each such account
representing one Condominium Unit and each such account shall be
-20-

in the name of the Association and shall be further identified by
the condominium unit designation and the name of the owner. From
each separate account, the Association, as attorney-in-fact,
shall use and disburse the total amount (of each) of such
accounts, without contribution from one account to another, for
the same purposes and in the same order as is provided in sub-
paragraphs 30.2.1 through 30.2.5 of this paragraph.

laration is in effect, any portion of the Condominium Project
shall be taken for any public or quasi-public use by a lawful
power or authority by the exercise of the right of condemnation
or eminent domain, then the following provisions shall apply with
respect to any proceeds arising out of such condemnation or
eminent domain and to the sale of remaining portions of the
Condominium Project:

Common Elements not included in any building containing Condo-
minium Units, then such proceeds shall be paid to the Association
of Unit Owners to be used in such manner as its Board of
Directors shall determine.

building containing Condominium Units, then if less than all of
such building has been condemned the remainder of'such building
shall be sold in such manner as the Board of Governors determines
and the proceeds of such sale together with the proceeds from the
condemnation or exercise of eminent domain for such building
shall be divided by the Association for each owner of a unit
within such building according to each owner's percentage
interest in the General Common Elements in the ratio of each such
owner's interest in such elements to those of the other owners
participating in such division. such proceeds shall be paid into
separate accounts, each such account representing one of the
Condominium Units. Each such account shall be in the name of the
Association and shall be further identified by the Condominium
unit designation and the name of the owner. From each separate
account the Association, as attorney-in-fact, shall forthwith use
and disburse the total amount of each such account, without
contribution from one account to another, in the manner and in
the priority set forth in subparagraphs 30.2.1 through 30.2.5
hereof.

such property shall be owned by all of the Condominium Unit
owners in the same proportion as their respective interests in
the General Common Elements, and such interest therein shall not
be transferable except with a transfer of a Condominium unit. A
transfer of a Condominium unit shall transfer to the transferee
I
-21-
c
o
ownership of the transferor's beneficial interest in such
property in accordance with the purpose for which it is intended

interest in such personal property associated with the foreclosed
condominium unit.

Managing Agent to insist in anyone or more instances, upon the
strict performance of any of the terms, covenants, conditions, or
restrictions of this Declaration, or to exercise any right or
option herein contained, or to serve any notice or to institute
any action shall not be construed as a waiver or a relinquishment
for the future, of such term, covenant, condition or restriction;
but such term, covenant, condition or restriction shall remain in
full force and effect. The receipt by the Board of Directors or
the Managing Agent of any assessment from an owner, with know-
ledge of the breach of any covenant hereof shall not be deemed a
