Owners, Regency Cabanas Townhouse Association Merger and Amendments to DCCR The Board has finalized the Merger and Amendments to the Declarations, Covenants, Condition and Restrictions (DCCR) for your approval. As you may remember the Board sent out a letter last fall detailing the process and reasons why this is needed. The following is a quick recap: 1. The first issue is the Association has two distinct sets of DCCRs for the property; the Regency Cabanas units built first, A, B, C, D, E and the First Addition units, F, G and H. These documents were never properly merged when the Association was legally merged in the early 80s. The DCCRs are very similar but have some differences. Managing the Association with one set of DCCRs is difficult; adding in a second, slightly different set makes it even more so. 2. The second issue is to update the merged DCCRs to clarify who is responsible for certain maintenance issues and to separate painting to be on a building by building basis instead of on an Association wide basis. Therefore, the Board is proposing that the Owners approve changes that merge the two sets of DCCRs, clarify and split painting on a building basis and clean up a few other minor issues to reflect Florida HOA statues. In order to accomplish this, our attorney recommends calling a meeting to vote on these revisions, which will coincide with the Annual Owners meeting. You do not have to attend in person but it is vital to the Association that you turn in your proxy or attend the meeting. To approve changes to the DCCR, 80% of the Owners must sign the proxy or attend the meeting. The current DDCR s require painting on an entire Association basis and the costs to be divided equally amongst all Owners. This creates 2 issues. 1) Different units require painting at different times and 2) regardless of timing all Owners will share the cost regardless of the need of their unit to be painted. To resolve the issues and make this a more equitable program, the DDCR s have been modified to reflect the following: 1. Each building will be painted as the need arises. 2. The cost to paint each unit will be borne by that building, i.e. cost to be divided equally amongst the Owners of each building instead of being shared by the entire Association. 3. All units are to be painted to a consistent standard, color as is currently defined and competitively bid. If we don t get the required 80% approval then essentially we are at point where it will be difficult to proceed with the painting of the units that need it, because of the following reasons: 1. The Association does not have sufficient funds in reserve to paint, nor have we been collecting assessments for painting. 2. As such we would have to vote and agree to a special assessment to be paid equally by all Owners. Current feedback is that such a vote would not pass. 3. The last option would be to raise our dues and save sufficient money to paint, which would take years. The process that our Association has gone through to get to this point is not insignificant. The Board has been wrestling with this issue for a very long time and we have put in many hours reviewing, proposing changes and coming to an overwhelming consensus that we believe balances the needs of our community. Attached are the forms for filling out the proxy and the new proposed DCCR. Normally we would send out a redline version of changes but since we are merging two sets of DCCRs and proposing amendments the Association s attorney has commented on the changes to address where they are different and why. Please fill out your proxy and vote yes or attend the meeting. If you have any questions about the proposed changes or process, please call me. My number is (850) 549-1295. The management company will be sending out regular emails asking for your proxy and a copy of these documents are on the website http://regency.myhomespot.com. Thank You, Josh Jenkins, RCTA President

At the first such meeting called, the presence of Owners or of proxies entitled to cast thirty percent (30%) of all the votes of the Owners shall constitute a quorum.

No such subsequent meeting shall be held more than 60 days following the preceding meeting. Section 6. Uniform Rate of Assessment. Both annual and special assessments must be fixed at a uniform rate for all lots and may be collected on a monthly basis. Section 7. Date of Annual Assessments and Due Dates. The Board of Directors shall fix the amount of the annual assessment against each Lot at least thirty (30) days in advance of each annual assessment period. Written notice of the annual assessment shall be sent to every Owner subject thereto. The due dates shall be established by the Board of Directors. The Association shall, upon demand, and for a reasonable charge, furnish a certificate signed by an officer of the Association setting forth whether the assessments on a specified Lot have been paid.

The Association may bring an action at law against the Owner personally obligated to pay the same, and/or foreclose the lien against the leasehold interest in the property. In addition, a late charge of ten percent (10%) of each payment due or $15.00, whichever is greater, shall be imposed on all payments received more than fifteen (15) days after the due date. No Owner may waive or otherwise escape liability for the assessments provided for herein by non-use of the Common Area or abandonment of the Owner s Lot. Section 9. Subordination of the Lien to Mortgages. The lien of the assessments provided for herein shall be subordinate to the lien of any first mortgage. Sale or transfer of the leasehold interest in any Lot shall not affect the assessment lien. However, the sale or transfer of the leasehold interest in any Lot pursuant to mortgage foreclosure or any proceeding in lieu thereof, shall extinguish the lien of such assessments as to payments which became due prior to such sale or transfer; provided, however, that for those mortgages entered into after the recording of this Declaration the lien is not extinguished and must be paid as may be provided by law, and as that law may be amended. No sale or transfer shall relieve such Lot from liability for any assessments thereafter becoming due or from the lien thereof. Section 10. Reserve Fund. The Association may establish and maintain an adequate reserve fund for the periodic maintenance, repair, and replacement of improvements to the Common Areas, which fund is to be maintained out of regular assessments for common expenses as required by law, as the law may be amended.

The Association may pool reserve funds as allowed by law, as that law may be amended. A fund may also be established to fund exterior maintenance that may be collected as part of an annual or special assessment. ARTICLE V ARCHITECTURAL CONTROL No building, fence, wall or other structure shall be commenced, erected or maintained upon the Properties, nor shall any exterior addition to or change or alteration therein be made until the plans and specifications showing the nature, kind, shape, height, materials and location of the same shall have been submitted to and approved in writing as to harmony of external design and location in relation to surrounding structures and topography by the Board of Directors of the Association, or by an architectural committee composed of three (3) or more representatives appointed by the Board. In the event said Board, or its designated committee, fails to approve or disapprove such design and location within thirty (30) days after said plans and specifications have been submitted to it, approval will not be required and this Article will be deemed to have been fully complied with. ARTICLE VI GENERAL PROVISIONS Section 1. Enforcement. The Association, or any Owner, shall have the right to enforce, by any proceeding at law or in equity, all restrictions, conditions, covenants, reservations, liens and charges now or hereafter imposed by the provisions of this Declaration. Failure by the Association or by any Owner to enforce any covenant or restriction herein contained shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter. Section 2. Severability. Invalidation of any one of these covenants or restrictions by judgment or court order shall in no wise affect any other provisions which shall remain in full force and effect. Section 3. Amendment. The covenants and restrictions of this Declaration shall run with and bind the land, for a term of thirty (30) years from November 19, 2015 when the Notice of Preservation was recorded in O.R. Book 7438 at Page 1664 in the public records of Escambia County, Florida. Preservation of the Declaration must be pursuant to Florida law, as that law may be amended. This Declaration may be amended by a vote of not less than seven-five percent (75%) of the total number of Lot Owners at a duly noticed meeting called for that purpose. Any amendment must be recorded and any requirements of Florida law, as it may be amended, must be met. ARTICLE VII PARTY WALLS Section 1. General Rules of Law to Apply. Each wall which is built as a part of the original construction of the homes upon the Properties and placed on the dividing line between the Lots shall constitute a party wall, and, to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Article, the general rules of law regarding party walls and liability for property damage due to negligence or willful acts or omissions shall apply thereto. Section 2. Sharing of Repair and Maintenance. The cost of reasonable care and maintenance of a party wall shall be shared by the Owners who make use of the wall in proportion to such use. Section 3. Destruction by Fire or Other Casualty. If a party wall is destroyed or damaged by fire or other casualty, any Owner who has used the wall may restore it, and if the other Owners thereafter make use of

the wall, they shall contribute to the cost of restoration thereof in proportion to such use without prejudice, however to the right of any such Owners to call for a larger contribution from the others under any rule of law regarding liability for negligent or willful acts or omissions. Section 4. Weatherproofing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, an Owner who by the Owner s negligent or willful act causes the party wall to be exposed to the elements shall bear the whole cost of furnishing the necessary protection against such elements. Section 5. Right to Contribution Runs with Land. The right of any Owner to contribution from any other Owner under this Article shall be appurtenant to the leasehold interest in said land and shall pass to such Owner s successors in title. Section 6. Arbitration. In the event of any dispute arising concerning a party wall, or under the provisions of this Article, each party shall choose one arbitrator, and such arbitrator shall choose one additional arbitrator, and the decision shall be a majority of all the arbitrators. ARTICLE VIII USE RESTRICTIONS Section 1. Santa Rosa Island Authority Restrictions. The provisions of the Restrictive Covenants governing all of Santa Rosa Island under the jurisdiction of the Santa Rosa Island Authority and imposed by the Santa Rosa Island Authority by document recorded in Deed Book 294 page 303 of the public records of Escambia County, Florida, as may be amended or modified from time to time by the Santa Rosa Island Authority, are hereby recognized as governing the use of the property.
