Architectural Review.

10.

10.1 The Neighborhood Declaration and Master Declaration currently provide that no improvements shall be commenced upon any homesite, nor shall the exterior color, style, roof, landscaping, and materials of an approved structure on a homesite be altered without the prior written approval of the Master ARC or the Neighborhood ARC, as applicable, which is appointed by the Board of Directors of Master Association or Neighborhood Association, as applicable. Improvements constructed by Seller and/or Builder are exempt from this review. Approval of any work by the Master ARC or the Neighborhood ARC, as applicable, shall not constitute an express or implied warranty or representation by the Master ARC or the Neighborhood ARC, as applicable, that any work complies with applicable codes, ordinances or other governmental regulations, or that the work is well designed or will be constructed in a proper manner. Decks, fences and exterior color are among the more common, although not the only, improvements for which architectural approval is required. For more information concerning architectural review, please review the Master Declaration and Neighborhood Declaration. 10.2 Failure to submit plans and specifications to the Master ARC or the Neighborhood ARC, as applicable, for approval is a violation of the Neighborhood Declaration and Master Declaration, which may result in sanctions and/or the imposition of fines, and the removal, at homeowner expense, of any non-approved modifications. 11. Pet Restrictions . Purchaser understands that the only pets allowed in the Neighborhood and the Community are those which are in accordance with the restrictions contained in the Neighborhood Documents, the Community Documents or any amendments thereto. 12. Leases; Short-Term Rentals . Purchaser acknowledges that homes in the Neighborhood may not be rented to transient tenants. No Residence may be subject to more than one (1) lease in any twelve (12) month period, regardless of the lease term. No time-share or other similar arrangement is permitted. No lease term shall be less than one (1) year. Purchaser may contact Neighborhood Association if Purchaser has any questions concerning short-term rentals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may develop rental projects or rent homes without limitation. 13. Flood Zone . Purchaser acknowledges that the Property may be in a flood zone. Mortgage lenders will typically require the issuance of flood insurance as a requirement for financing, which insurance must be present at Closing. Seller recommends that each Purchaser of a home protect his/her home by obtaining proper insurance coverage. It is possible, however, for Purchaser to submit documentation to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to have the Residence re-classified by FEMA, whereby the mortgage lender may have the option to waive the requirement of flood insurance. Purchaser is solely responsible for the submission to FEMA for such re-classification and any and all expenses related to such submission. Further, Purchaser acknowledges and understands that the waiver of flood insurance is at the sole discretion of the mortgage lender.

14.1 NPBCID and SFWMD. Northern Palm Beach County Improvement District (“ NPBCID ”) is an independent special district of the State of Florida and may be involved in the implementation and maintenance of various public benefits and improvements to the property located within the Community, all of which is located within NPBCID’s Units of Development No. 2, 2A and 2C.

Various real property interests have or will be conveyed to NPBCID for roads, stormwater retention, drainage, conservation areas and buffers. The entire Surface Water Management System (defined in the Neighborhood Declaration) and other NPBCID facilities constructed pursuant to the NPBCID plan of improvements shall be maintained by NPBCID unless the Master Association enters into a High Level Maintenance Agreement with NPBCID to maintain a portion of the Surface Water Management System and/or such other NPBCID facilities. The Master Association may, in turn, delegate certain of its maintenance responsibilities to the Neighborhood Association pursuant to a Maintenance Delegation Agreement. 14.3 Water Bodies. No swimming or operation of any motorized boats shall be permitted in or on any of the lakes, ponds, retention areas or other water bodies which are dedicated or deeded to NPBCID or over which NPBCID has an easement, unless previously permitted in writing by NPBCID.

The priority function of these water bodies is surface water management, not aesthetic or recreational. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a permit from SFWMD will be required for withdrawal of water for irrigation and where a permit, interlocal agreement or other agreement is in existence from or with any entity that has the right to charge for withdrawal of water for irrigation, no other approval shall be required for the removal of water in accordance with the overall IQ water irrigation system for the Neighborhood if such IQ water irrigation system has been approved in writing by the entity having the right to charge for such removal and SFWMD.

Portions of the Community shall contain Conservation Areas (defined in the Neighborhood Declaration), as required by the SFWMD. NPBCID will own, operate and maintain the Conservation Areas. The Conservation Areas for which NPBCID retains ownership shall be maintained by NPBCID unless the Master Association contracts with NPBCID for the Master Association to maintain all or part of such Conservation Areas. In the event NPBCID maintains the Conservation Areas, all individuals or entities owning or purchasing Units within the Neighborhood will pay for such operation/maintenance expenses through NPBCID non-ad valorem assessments. In the event the Master Association contracts to maintain such Conservation Areas, then such maintenance expenses will be paid by the Owner through their Master Assessments due the Master Association. In the event the Association contracts with the Master Association to maintain such Conservation Areas, then such maintenance expenses will be paid by the Owners through their Assessments. THE CONSERVATION AREAS SHALL BE THE PERPETUAL RESPONSIBILITY OF NPBCID OR THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, AS PROVIDED HEREIN, AND MAY IN NO WAY BE ALTERED FROM THEIR NATURAL OR PERMITTED STATE.
