Street light poles or standard shall be served by underground cable. Underground cable facilities to a particular dwelling may be run from the nearest service pedestal or transformer to the point of usage determined by the location and construction of the dwelling, provided that upon the installation of such a cable facility to a particular dwelling the supplier of such service shall thereafter be deemed to have a definitive permanent, effective and exclusive right-of-way easement on said Lot, covering a five-foot strip extending 2.5 feet on each side of such cable facility, extending from the service pedestal or transformer to the service entrance on said dwelling. Such suppliers shall at all times have right of access to all easements granted herein for the purpose of installing, maintaining, removing or replacing any portion of its facilities.

    4

    7. Party Walls. Each wall which is built as a part of the original construction of the homes within the Subdivision and placed on the dividing line between Lots shall constitute a party wall, and to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions hereof, the general rule of law regarding party walls and liability for property damage due to negligence or willful acts or omissions shall apply thereto. The cost of reasonable repair and maintenance of a party wall shall be shared by the Owners who make use of the wall in proportion to such use. If a party wall should be destroyed or damaged by fire, or other casualty, any Owner who has used the wall may restore it, and if the other Owner thereafter makes use of the wall, they shall contribute to the cost of restoration thereof in proportion to such use, without prejudice, however, to the rights of 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. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Paragraph 7, an Owner who have by his negligent or willful act cause the party wall to be exposed to the elements shall bear the whole cost of furnishing the necessary protection against such elements. The right of any Owner to a contribution from any other Owner under this Paragraph 7 shall be appurtenant to the land and shall pass to such Owner's successors in title. In the event any dispute arises concerning a party wall, or under the provisions of this Paragraph 7, each party shall choose one arbitrator, and such arbitrators shall choose one additional arbitrator, and the decision shall be by a majority of all arbitrators so chosen. Such decisions shall be binding upon all parties to the dispute.
    8. Landscaping Guidelines. Each Owner shall maintain the slopes on his Lot at the slope and pitch fixed by the finished grading thereof, including watering and planting of the slopes.

    (a) Whenever existing growth is pleasing and in good condition, it shall be saved and utilized.
    (b) Landscape elements shall be of the "long-lived" variety. Short-lived materials can be utilized, but only as a supplement to longer-lived elements.
    (c) Landscape elements shall relate to architectural design elements. Landscape materials are considered to be a strong unifying element and, therefore, shall reflect the physical functional, and
    aesthetic qualities of the site.
    (d) Simple palettes of materials and simple composition are recommended to achieve park-like design
    5

    quality.
    (e) Extensive horizontal and vertical surfaces comprised of singular materials shall be modulated or interrupted by foliage masses.

    In the event that the need for maintenance or repair is caused through the willful or negligent act of the Owner, his family, guests, or invitees, the cost of such maintenance or repairs shall be added to and become a part of the assessment to which such Lot is subject. The Owner of each Lot shall keep all parts of the same free from rubbish, litter, and noxious weeds. All trash, garbage, or rubbish and litter shall be kept in containers adequate for the purpose and shall be stored on the Lot in such a manner as to be out of public view until such day as is designated for collection of such material.
    Each Lot shall be subject to an easement for access to make or perform reasonable repairs and maintenance on adjoining Lots and structures thereon; provided, however, that:
    (a) Any damage caused by such entry upon a Lot or upon any adjoining property shall be repaired at the expense of the Owner whose property was the object of the repair work which caused the same;
    (b) Any such entry shall be made only at reasonable times 6

    and with as little inconvenience as possible to the Owner of the entered Lot; and
    (c) In no event shall said easement be deemed to permit

    shown in said plat. Underground service cables to a particular
    3

    dwelling may be run from the nearest service pedestal or
    transformer to the point of usage determined by the location and
    construction of the dwelling, provided that upon the installation
    of such a service cable to a particular dwelling, the supplier of
    electric service shall thereafter be deemed to have a definitive,
    permanent, effective and exclusive right-of-way easement on said
    lot, covering a five foot strip extending 2.5 feet on each side
    of such service cable, extending from the service pedestal or
    transformer to the service entrance on said dwelling. The

    connections with any community antenna television system
    operating within the platted area. In addition to the
    architectural control to be exercised pursuant to the terms

    7. Landscaping Guidelines. Each owner shall maintain the
    slopes on his lot or parcel at the slope and pitch fixed by the
    finished grading thereof, including watering and planting of the

    (a) Whenever existing growth is pleasing and in good
    condition, it shall be saved and utilized.

    4

    variety. Short-lived materials can be utilized,
    but only as a supplement to longer-lived element.

    (a) Whenever existing growth is pleasing and in good condition, it shall be saved and utilized.
    (b) Landscape elements shall be of the "long-lived" variety. Short-lived materials can be utilized, but only as a supplement to longer-lived elements.

    The Owner of each Lot shall keep all parts of the same which are not subject to maintenance by the Townhouse Association free from rubbish, litter, and noxious weeds. All trash, garbage, or rubbish and litter shall be kept in containers adequate for the
    6

    purpose and shall be stored on the Lot in such a manner as to be out of public view until such day as is designated for collection of such material.
    All landscaping from time to time placed upon the Lot in accordance with the terms hereof shall be maintained in good condition and repair at all times. Each Lot shall be subject to an easement for access to make reasonable repairs on adjoining Lots and structures thereon; provided, however, that:
    (a) Any damage caused by such entry upon a Lot or upon any adjoining property shall be repaired at the expense of the Owner whose property was the object of the repair work which caused the same;

Such storage or activities may be performed within structures located on the Lot which screen the sight and sound of the activities from the street and from adjoining property in such a manner so as to have the storage or activity out of the public view. The foregoing restriction shall not be deemed to prevent the washing or polishing of such motor vehicles, boats, trailers, campers, or motor-driven cycles, together with those activities normally incident or necessary to such washing and polishing, nor shall it be deemed to prevent the parking and storage of motor vehicles, boats, trailers or motor- driven cycles in any carport located on any Lot within the subdivision. No boat, trailer, camper, truck, or commercial vehicles shall be parked at any time on or in front of any Lot in
    7

    an area visible from adjoining property or in the public view, except as such parking is necessary to make commercial deliveries.
    11. Signs. No sign or other advertising device of any nature whatsoever shall be placed or maintained upon any Lot, except neatly painted "For Sale", "For Rent", or "Open for Inspection" and such other signs as may be authorized by the Architectural Committee.

Written notice of the annual assessment shall be sent to every Owner subject thereto. The Townhouse Association shall upon demand at any time furnish a certificate in writing signed by an officer of the Townhouse Association, setting forth the assessment due and unpaid, if any, on a specified Lot. A reasonable charge may be made for the issuance of these certificates. Such certificate shall be conclusive evidence of payment of any assessment therein said to have been paid.
    (vii) Effect of Non-Payment of Assessment Remedies. 11

    Each regular assessment and each special assessment shall be separate, distinct and personal debt and obligations of the Owner or Owners of the Lots against which the same are assessed.

    (A) By suit or suits at law to enforce each such assessment obligation.

Any judgment rendered in any such action shall include, where permissible under any law, a sum for reasonable attorneys' fees in such amount as the court may adjudge against such defaulting Owner. Upon full satisfaction of any such judgment, it shall be the duty of the Townhouse Association or the Homeowners Association, as the case may be, by an authorized officer thereof to execute and deliver to the judgement debtor an appropriate satisfaction thereof.
    (B) At any time within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any such default with respect to annual assessments, the Townhouse Association may give notice to the defaulting Owner, which said notice shall state the date of the delinquency, the amount of the delinquency, and make a demand for a payment thereof. If such delinquency is not paid within ten (10) days after delivery of such notice, the Townhouse Association may file in the office of the County Clerk of Osage County, Oklahoma, a claim evidencing the lien provided for in this subparagraph 16 (c) against the Lot of such delinquent Owner. Such claim shall state (1) the name of the delinquent Owner; (2) a description of the Lot against which claim of lien, if any, is made; (3) the amount claimed to be due and owing; (4) that the lien, if any, is asserted by the Townhouse Association pursuant to the terms of this Certificate of Dedication (giving the date of execution and the date, book and page references of the recording thereof in the Office of the County Clerk of Osage County, Oklahoma); and (5) that a lien, if any, is claimed against the described Lot in an amount equal to the amount of the said delinquency. Any such claim shall be signed and acknowledged by any two (2) or more members of the Board of Directors of the Townhouse Association and shall be dated as of the date of the execution of the last such Board member to execute said claim. The filing of a claim of lien as herein provided shall be deemed a perfection of such lien and shall make such lien superior to all other claims except as herein
    12

    provided. The lien may be foreclosed by appropriate action in court or in the manner provided by law for the foreclosure of a mortgage under power of sale. In the event foreclosure is by action in court, reasonable attorneys' fees shall be allowed to the extent permitted by law. In the event the foreclosure is as in the case of a mortgage under power of sale, any person designated by the Townhouse Association in writing shall be deemed to be acting as the agent of the lienor and shall be entitled to actual expenses and such fees as may be allowed by law or as may be prevailing at the time the sale is conducted.
    (viii) Mortgage Protection.

    (B) No amendment to this paragraph shall affect
    the rights of the holder of any such mortgage or deed
    of trust recorded prior to adoption of such amendment
    who does not join in the execution thereof;
    (C) By subordination agreement executed by a majority of the Board, the benefits of subparagraphs 16 (c) (viii) (A) and 16 (c) (viii) (B) may be extended to mortgages or deeds of trust not otherwise entitled thereto.

    19. Approvals, Variances, and Waivers.

    20. Enforcement. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, the Home Owners Association, the Area Association, the Townhouse Association, (herein collectively called "the Associations") or any Owner shall have the right to enforce, by any proceeding at law or in equity, all restrictions, conditions, covenants, reservations, and charges now or hereafter proposed by the provision hereof. Failure by the Associations or by any Owner to enforce any covenants or restrictions herein contained shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter. The City of Tulsa (unless the Subdivision shall be annexed to any other municipality, in which event , that municipality to which the Subdivision shall be annexed), acting by and through any appropriate government agency or appropriate official, shall have the right to enforce any land use restriction set forth in paragraph 1 hereof or to which the Subdivision may be subject pursuant to Planned Unit Development No. 106.
    21. Severability. Invalidation of any of these covenants or restriction by judgment or court order shall in no way affect any other provision which shall remain in full force and effect.
    22. Amendment. Covenants and restrictions contained in this Certificate of Dedication shall run with and bind the land, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Associations, or the owner of any Lot, their legal representatives heirs, successors, and assigns, for a term of forty (40) years from
    14

    the date this Certificate of Dedication is recorded, after which time said covenants shall be automatically extended for successive periods of ten (10) years. The covenants and restrictions of this Certificate of Dedication may be amended during the first forty (40) year period by an instrument signed by the Owners of no less than eighty percent (80%) of the Lots in the Subdivision, and thereafter by an instrument signed by the Owners of not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of said Lots. Any such amendment must de duly recorded to be effective.
    23. FHA-VA Approval. As long as Grantor owns any of the Lots, amendment of this Certificate will require the prior approval of the Federal Housing Administration or the Veterans Administration.
