Buyer is instructed to consult Section VI. Dwelling Quality for Architectural Control requirements. 2) DISCLOSURE: Raymond C. Leffler, owner of The Newport Group, Ltd., Newport Realty Corp., Newport Builders, Inc., and Newbrook Homes, Inc. is a licensed Wisconsin Real Estate Broker and is the owner of Prairie Pathways Subdivision. 3) Purchaser acknowledges a minimum front yard set back as described in Section VII of the Restrictive Covenants. 4) The final plat for Prairie Pathways Subdivision will be recorded with the Register of Deeds during the first quarter of the year 2006. Therefore, individual lots will not be individually assessed for the tax year 2006 and will remain a part of the overall tax key numbers until January 1, 2007 at which time the lots will be individually assessed. Therefore, the tax proration will be based on an estimated tax bill of $200.00 per lot for the tax year 2006. As a result, the typical tax proration will not take place, instead the buyer will, at closing, give the seller a proration for the balance of the year (from date of closing to December 31, 2006). All monies given as credit for tax prorations are to be held in escrow with the title company until such time as the 2006 tax bills are released. Seller will receive a tax bill for the entire parcel and, upon receipt of said tax bill, will request the release of escrowed monies from the title company, will include the seller s portion of taxes due, and will pay in full all real estate taxes due. Seller will provide all individual lot owners with copies of the paid tax bills upon receipt from the Village Treasurer. (This paragraph applies only to closings occurring prior to December 31, 2006.) For closings taking place on or after January 1, 2007, but prior to the publication of the 2007 assessments, the tax proration shall be based on 80% of the sale price times the 2006 mill rate. At closing seller shall credit buyer with the necessary proration and buyer shall be responsible for all tax payments for the year 2007. For closings taking place after January 1, 2007, and after the publication of the individual 2007 assessments, the taxproration shall be based on the assessed value for 2007 times the 2006 mill rate (until the 2007 mill rate is published, at which time the 2007 rate shall be used). At closing seller shall credit buyer with the necessary proration and buyer shall be responsible for all tax payments for the year 2007. 5) Buyer acknowledges that all improvements to the subdivision (i.e., grading, asphalt, sanitary sewer, water, storm sewer, gas, electric, telephone and cable) have been installed and paid for by the developer. All utilities including gas, electric, phone and cable are at lot lines or within road right-of-ways in front of lot.

The association fee shall be prorated from the day of closing through the end of the year and the prorated amount shall be charged to buyer.
