and several where there are multiple Owners of the Unit. The liability is absolute and unconditional. No Owner is exempt from liability for payment of Assessments by right of set-off, by waiver of use or enjoyment of any part of the Property, by absence from or abandonment of the Unit, by the waiver of any other rights, or by reason of any claim against the Association or its officers, directors or agents, or for their failure to fulfill any duties under the Governing Documents or the Act. The Association may invoke the charges, sanctions and remedies set forth in Section 14, in addition to any remedies provided elsewhere in the Governing Documents, the Rules and Regulations, or Bylaws, for the purpose of enforcing its rights hereunder. 6.7 Declarant's Assessment Program. The following alternative Assessment program is established pursuant to Section 515B.3-115(a)(2) of the Act. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6, if a Common Expense Assessment has been levied, any unsold Unit owned by Declarant shall be assessed at the rate of twenty-five percent (25%) of the Assessments levied on other Units of the same type until a certificate of occupancy has been issued with respect to such Unit by the municipality in which the Unit is located if said municipality issues said certificate. This reduced Assessment shall apply to each Unit owned by Declarant at the time that the Unit is created, and shall terminate with respect to each such Unit upon the issuance of the certificate of occupancy for the Unit. This alternative Assessment program will not affect the allocated share of replacement reserves attributable to Units owned by Declarant. The Declarant shall be obligated within 60 days following the termination of the period of the declarant control of the Association, to make up any operating deficit, if any, incurred by the association during the period of declarant control as a result of the alternative assessment program. 6.8 Assessment Lien. The Association has a lien on a Unit for any Assessment levied against that Unit from the time the Assessment becomes due. If an Assessment is payable in installments, the full amount of the Assessment is a lien from the time the first installment thereof becomes due. Fees, charges, late charges, fines and interest charges imposed by the Association pursuant to Section 515B.3- 102(a)(10), (11) and (12) of the Act are liens, and are enforceable as Assessments, under this Section 6. Recording of the Declaration constitutes record notice and perfection of any lien under this Section 6, and no further recordation of any notice of or claim for the lien is required. The release of the lien shall not release the Owner from personal liability unless agreed to in writing by the Association. 6.9 Foreclosure of Lien; Remedies. A lien for Assessments may be foreclosed against a Unit under the laws of the state of Minnesota (i) by action, or (ii) by advertisement in a like manner as a mortgage containing a power of sale. The Association, or its authorized representative, shall have the power to bid in at the foreclosure sale and to acquire, hold, lease, mortgage and convey any Unit so acquired. The Owner and any other Person claiming an interest in the Unit, by the acceptance or assertion of any interest in the Unit, grants to the Association a power of sale and full authority to accomplish the foreclosure. The Association shall, in addition to its other remedies, have the right to pursue any other remedy at law or in equity against the Owner who fails to pay any Assessment or charge against the Unit. 11 i i
