The Drainage Easement granted herein shall be for the non-exclusive benefit of all present and

Page 4 of 10 dedicated pursuant to plat recorded in Plat Book 210, Page 70 of the Durham County Registry.

The Drainage Easement granted herein shall be for the non-exclusive benefit of all present and future Owners of the Lots and their mortgagees and Permittees, it being the intent hereof that the Drainage Easement shall run with the land as a burden on the Lots and as a benefit to the Lots.

If any Owner shall fail to pay any sum due and payable to another Owner pursuant to this Declaration, such unpaid sum shall constitute a lien against such defaulting Owner's Lot or his interest therein effective upon recordation of notice thereof in the appropriate jurisdictional body in Durham County, North Carolina, provided, however, that any such lien shall be junior and subordinate to any mortgage lien then existing, and provided further that the foreclosure or enforcement of any such lien will not invalidate any lease executed by the Owner of the Lots prior to the date of recording the lien, whether or not the lease, or a memorandum thereof, is recorded.

Any lien filed in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 15 may be enforced by foreclosure of a lien for services as provided in Chapter 44A of the North Carolina General Statutes, or in any other manner permitted by law, at the election of the Owner filing such lien.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, no breach hereunder shall entitle any Owner to cancel, rescind, or otherwise terminate this Declaration. No breach hereunder shall defeat or render invalid the lien of any mortgage or deed of trust upon any property made in good faith for value, but the easements, covenants, conditions and restrictions hereof shall be binding upon and effective against any Owner of such property covered hereby whose title thereto is acquired by foreclosure, trustee's sale, or otherwise.
