The terms and provisions set forth in this Declaration, which are binding upon all Owners, are not exclusive, and Owners shall, in addition, be subject to the terms and provisions of the Articles, Bylaws and Association Rules to the extent those provisions are not in conflict with this Declaration. Membership of Owners in the Association shall be appurtenant to and may not be separated from an Owner's Lot. Ownership of a Lot shall be the sole qualification for membership; provided, however, a Member's voting rights may be regulated or suspended as provided in this Declaration, the Bylaws or the Association Rules. 2.2 Transfer. The membership held by any Owner shall not be transferred, pledged or alienated in any way, except that such membership shall automatically be transferred to the transferee of the Lot.

Class A Members shall be all Owners, with the exception of the Declarant, until the Class B membership has been converted to Class A membership. Each Class A Member shall be entitled to the number of votes represented by its Voting Power. If the Owner is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other legal entity, such entity shall delegate an individual to act and vote on behalf of such entity with respect to Association matters. When more than one person or entity owns a portion of the interest in an Lot required for membership, each such person shall be a Member and the vote(s) for such Lot shall be exercised as they among themselves determine, but in no event shall more than the total number of votes attributable to the Lot be cast with respect to any Lot. Unless the Board receives a written objection in advance from a Co-Owner, it shall be conclusively presumed that a Co- Owner who is present and voting is acting with the consent of its Co-Owners. If any Lots originally subdivided by Declarant are further subdivided by a subsequent Owner (with the prior consents required pursuant to Section 5.11 of this Declaration) into separate legal lots, the Voting Power allocable to the re-subdivided Lot shall be reallocated by the Board based on its reasonable determination of the relative acreage of such Lots. (b) Class B. The Class B Member shall be Declarant. The Class B Member shall be entitled to four (4) votes for each vote allocated in the Voting Power to any Lot for which Declarant is the Owner; provided that the Class B membership shall cease and be converted to Class A membership on the happening of either of the following events, whichever occurs earlier: Bressi Ranch Cop.

Unless elsewhere otherwise specifically provided in this Declaration or the Bylaws, any provision of this Declaration or the Bylaws which requires the vote or written assent of the Voting Power of the Association or any class or classes of membership shall be deemed satisfied by the following: (a) The vote in person or by proxy if a meeting is held or by written ballot if no meeting is held of the required percentage of a quorum of the Voting Power of the Association. If not by written ballot, said vote shall be at a meeting duly called and noticed pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws dealing with annual or special meetings of the Members. (b) Written consents signed by the entire membership of the Association if the action is taken without meeting or written ballot. Said written consent shall be solicited pursuant to the procedures provided in the Bylaws. (c) In any matter requiring the vote of the Members, but not specifically provided for in this Declaration or the Articles, Bylaws, Association Rules or any contract executed by the Association, a simple majority of the Voting Power of a quorum of the Members entitled to vote on such matters shall suffice. (d) Except with respect to amendments to this Declaration, the Articles or the Bylaws themselves, or with respect to matters specified in such documents as requiring a stipulated percentage of the "total Voting Power" of the Members or Association, in which event the specified percentage shall be of all of the votes in the Association eligible to be cast, wherever the Declaration, the Articles or the Bylaws provide that an action requires a majority or other specified percentage of the "Voting Power" of the Members, Owners, or Association such percentage is only of that portion of the Voting Power of the Members or Owners necessary to constitute a quorum as established in the Bylaws. The actual minimum percentage of the total Voting Power required with respect to an action is the product of the percentage thereof constituting a quorum multiplied by the percentage set forth in the Declaration, Articles or Bylaws as necessary to approve the action proposed to be taken.

(b) Notice of Delinquent Assessment. An Assessment shall become a lien against a Lot so assessed upon recordation of a notice of delinquent assessment in the office of the San Diego County Recorder duly signed and acknowledged by the President or Secretary of the Association. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the delinquent Assessment, a description of the Lot to which the lien attached, the name of the record owner thereof and the name and address of the trustee entitled to conduct a nonjudicial foreclosure thereof. Such notice shall also provide that the lien secures any additional sums which may be levied pursuant to this Declaration if the Assessment is not paid when due. When the Association records a notice of delinquency, it shall also record a notice of satisfaction and release of Hen upon timely payment of the sums secured thereby. (c) Personal Obligation. Each such Assessment, together with such interest, late charges, costs and attorneys' fees, shall also be the personal obligation of the Owner of the Lot at the time when the Assessment becomes due. The personal obligation shall not pass to the successors in title of an Owner unless expressly assumed by such successors but each such successor shall take subject to the notice of assessment (or notice of delinquency) or to any Assessment of which it has actual notice pursuant to Section 1367 of the Civil Code or any successor statute. 3.2 Purpose of Assessments. The Assessments levied by the Association shall be used exclusively for the purposes of managing the Project as provided in this Declaration; promoting the use, occupancy and enjoyment of the Project as provided in this Declaration; enhancing and protecting the value, desirability and attractiveness of the Project and the quality of environment within the Project as provided in this Declaration, including, without limitation, the improvement, maintenance and administration of the Property; administering and enforcing this Declaration; collecting and disbursing funds pursuant to this Declaration; improving and maintaining the Easements and Common Improvements or furthering any other duty or power of the Association as provided in this Declaration. 3.3 Regular Assessments. (a) Calculation of and Date of Commencement of Regular Assessments. Each Owner's share of Regular Assessments shall be determined by multiplying the Common Expenses budgeted as provided herein by each Owner's Allocable Share of Assessments. The Regular Assessments shall commence as to all Lots on the first day of the month immediately succeeding the date that Declarant charges the Association with the duties and powers provided for in this Declaration, including, but not limited to, the transfer to the Association of the maintenance responsibilities for the Easements and the Common Improvements. The first Brtssi Ranch Corp. Center 2/10/05 Declaration of CC&Rs 32328-U19C8379.8 10 8740 Regular Assessment payments shall be adjusted according to the number of months remaining in the Association's fiscal year. (b) Budget. Not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, the Board shall distribute to each Owner a pro forma operating budget for the upcoming fiscal year which shall estimate the total Common Expenses and the cash requirements to meet Common Expenses for such fiscal year. The budget shall be accompanied by a schedule setting forth the apportionment of Regular Assessments among the Lots based upon the Allocable Shares of Common Expenses. Each Owner shall thereafter pay to the Association its Regular Assessment on the first day of each calendar month of the Association's fiscal year, provided that the Board may elect to require such payments to be made on a quarterly basis by written notice thereof to the Owners. The amount of the installments shall be adjusted during the course of the fiscal year, as necessary, to reflect the commencement of the obligation to pay Assessments by Owners not so required as of the beginning of the fiscal year and related adjustments to the Allocable Shares of Assessments. The Board shall comply with all provisions of the other Governing Documents and the California Civil Code applicable to the Project with respect to budgets, financial statements and information to be generated and provided to Owners and hooks and records to be maintained by owners associations.

For purposes of this Section, Surplus for any fiscal year means the amount by which the sum of collected Regular Assessments plus cash receipts from sources exceeds the sum of the actual outlays for Common Expenses plus unexpended reserves for contingencies, repairs and replacements. (d) Capital Contributions for Reserves. The Regular Assessments shall include reasonable amounts as determined by the Board collected as reserves for Ihc future repair or replacement of all or a portion of the Easements or Common Improvements, or any other purpose as is within the scope of the Board's authority. All amounts collected as reserves, whether pursuant to this Section or otherwise, shall be deposited by the Board in separate bank accounts to be held in trust for the purposes for which they are collected and are to be segregated from and not commingled with any other funds of the Association. The Board may require that the sums representing capital contributions for reserves be paid by separate check or in such other manner as clearly segregates such sums from those which are being paid on account of current expenses. 3.4 Special Assessments. In the event that during any fiscal year, the Board determines that the estimated total amount of funds necessary to defray Common Expenses or other expenses of the Association for a given fiscal year is or will be inadequate to pay such Common Expenses or expenses due to unanticipated delinquencies, costs of additional maintenance or unexpected repair or replacement of portions of the Common Area, or of funds otherwise required for any authorized activity of the Association, the Board may levy a Special Assessment chargeable to each Owner based on each Owner's Allocable Share of Assessments to defray such costs. The Board may, in its discretion, prorate such Special Assessment payment Brcssi Ranch Crap.

All Enforcement Assessments shall be payable within ten (10) days of written notice thereof from the Association. 3.6 No Offsets. All Assessments shall be payable in the amount specified by the Assessment and no offsets against such amount shall be permitted for any reason, including, without limitation, a claim that the Association is not properly exercising its duties and powers as provided in this Declaration or that o Member has made or elects to make no use of the Easements or Common Improvements. 3.7 Funds Held in Trust. The assessments collected by the Association shall be held by the Association for and on behalf of all Owners and shall be used for the operation, care and maintenance of the Easements and Common Improvements, administration and governance of the Association, performance of the Association's obligations hereunder and to reimburse the Association for the costs incurred in bringing an Owner into compliance with the Governing Documents, as provided for in this Declaration. Upon the sale or transfer of any Lot, the Owner's interests in said funds shall be deemed automatically transferred to the successor in interest o f such Owner. 3.8 Late Payments. If an Owner shall fail to pay such Owner's Regular Assessments or any other Assessments due under this Declaration, including without limitation, Special Assessments, and Enforcement Assessments, within fifteen (15) days after the due date therefor, then a late charge often percent (10%) of the amount of the delinquent amount due, interest charged at the maximum rate then permitted at law commencing thirty (30) days from the date of delinquency, and reasonable costs of collection, including attorneys' fees and costs, shall be levied by the Association; provided, however, that upon any amendments to California Civil Code Section 1366 or any successor statute or law, the amount of such interest rate and the late charge shall be adjusted to comply with the provisions of any such applicable statute or law.
