200314008 Section 5. Escrow of Assessments. The Directors of the Association may arrange to have all assessments in Section 4 of Article V paid to an escrow fund to be held and managed by a bank or savings and loan association. Section 6. Personal Assessment Liability. Each unit owner or, if more than one, owners, jointly and severally, shall be personally liable for the payment of assessments under the preceding Sections. Upon the expiration of thirty (30) days from the due date of an assessment, if said assessment remains unpaid, the Association may bring suit against the owner or owners of said unit for recovery of the same. If the assessment is a monthly installment of an annual assessment, the default in payment of one installment when due, may, at the option of the Association, cause the remainder of the installments due for that annual period to become immediately due and payable. The defaulting unit owner shall be liable for the unpaid assessment or assessments, interest thereon from the due date to the date paid at the highest legal rate, and attorney fees and expenses incurred in the collection of the same. No proceeding to collect defaulted assessments pursuant to this Section shall constitute a waiver of the lien of the Association against said defaulting owner's unit nor a waiver of the right of the Association to foreclose thereon. The grantee of a unit shall be jointly and severally liable with the grantor for all unpaid assessments against the latter up to the time of the grantor conveyance, without prejudice to the grantee's right to recover from the grantor the amounts paid by the grantee therefor, provided, however, that upon payment of a reasonable fee and upon written request, any such prospective grantee shall be entitled to a statement from the Executive Board or the Manager, in the form set forth in Section 8 of Article V, which shall be conclusive upon the Association in favor of all persons relying thereon in good faith. Unless such request for a statement of indebtedness shall be complied with within fifteen (15) days of such request, then such grantee shall not be liable for, nor shall the condominium unit conveyed be subject to a lien for any unpaid assessments accruing prior to the date of such request. The provisions set forth in this Section shall not apply to the initial sales and conveyances of the condominium units made by the Declarant, and such sales shall be free from all assessments to the date of conveyance. Section 7. Assessment Lien. If any unit owner shall fail or refuse to make any payment of an assessment when due, the amount thereof shall constitute a lien on the interest of the unit owner in his unit and the Directors may record such lien in the Office of the Register of Deeds of Hall County, Nebraska; whereupon, said lien shall be privileged over and prior to all liens and encumbrances except assessments, liens and charges for taxes past due and unpaid on the unit and except prior duly recorded mortgage and lien instruments. Assessments delinquent more than ten (10) days after the due date shall bear interest at the highest legal rate from the due date until paid. The delinquency of one installment of an annual assessment shall cause all remaining installments, at the option of the Association, to immediately become due and payable. The Executive Board shall have the right and duty to attempt to recover such common charges, together with interest thereon, and the expenses of the proceeding, including attorney fees, in an action to recover the same brought against such unit owner, or by foreclosure of the lien on such unit granted by Section 76 -874 of the Nebraska Condominium Act. In any action brought by the Executive Board to foreclose a lien on a unit because of unpaid assessments, the unit owner shall be required to pay a 10
